Who plays Nikki on Trying and who is in the cast?
Nikki on Trying is played by BAFTA nominee Esther Smith. She returns for the third series of the popular show opposite cast members including Rafe Spall, who plays on-screen boyfriend Jason. And after a dramatic end to season two they wake up as new parents to two children they are still getting to know. Now they just have to keep hold of them, which proves to be trickier than they initially thought. Thrown straight into the parental deep end, Nikki and Jason’s relationships with each other and with their nearest and dearest are tested as they desperately try to navigate the ups and downs of parenting — while hanging onto their kids, and their sanity.
Joining Esther and Rafe is Imelda Staunton as Penny, Marian McLoughlin as Jilly, Paula Wilcox as Sandra, Ophelia Lovibond as Erica, Phil Davis as Vic, Oliver Chris as Freddy, Robyn Cara as Jennifer/Jen, Sian Brooke as Karen, and Darren Boyd as Scott.
How many seasons of Trying are there?
There are three seasons of Trying. The first season made its debut in May 2020, featuring eight episodes. With the announcement of a 14 May 2021 second season release date, Apple also renewed the show for a third season. The show ran for eight episodes in season two and will again have eight episodes in the latest instalment.
