List of episodes

The fourth season of the television drama series Winners & Losers will air in two parts on the Seven Network in Australia. Season 4A – comprising 13 episodes – began airing on 1 July 2014 and concluded airing on 23 September 2014, while Season 4B – comprising 13 episodes – began airing on 14 July 2015. Season four began immediately after the conclusion of the third season. Season four follows the lives of Jenny, Bec, Sophie, Frances and Sam two months on from the discovery that Frances is pregnant. Filming for the season began in February 2014 and wrapped in November 2014.[2]

Production

On 19 December 2013, it was announced that Seven had renewed Winners & Losers for a fourth season, set to air in 2014.[3]

Julie McGauran, the head of Drama at Seven stated, "Winners & Losers is a show everyone loves working on. The contemporary vibe allows for great storytelling against a backdrop everyone can relate to. There's so much in store for our favourite girls as we follow them through triumph, tragedy and everything in between."

A fourth season was confirmed on 19 December 2013.[3] A nine-month production commenced in Melbourne in February 2014.[3] The first scripts for season four were delivered on 10 February 2014.[4] The table read for season four was held on 25 February 2014.[5] Filming for the fourth season began on 3 March 2014 and wrapped on 19 November 2014.[6]

TV Week announced that season four, like season three, would be split into two batches of 13 episodes with the first half to air at the end of 2014 and the second half to air at the beginning of 2015.

Plot

This season is about having it all. Despite everything they've been through, Bec, Sophie, Jenny, Frances and Sam are as close as they've ever been to having the three key areas of life – love, work and home – firing on all cylinders. But when relationships, friendships, careers and aspirations are all tested, the girls will question if it is even possible to have it all? And if it is, do they really want it?
