Synopsis
Shameless writer Paul Abbott’s acclaimed BBC drama follows the connection between the death of a politician’s research assistant and the death of a drug dealer. Stephen Collins (David Morrissey, Basic Instinct 2) is an ambitious, high-flying British politician. Cal McAffrey (John Simm, Life On Mars ) is Collins’ former campaign manager who is now an investigative journalist. One day, Collins’ research assistant mysteriously falls to her death on London Underground. A revelation about Collins’ relationship with his assistant soon hits the headlines. A young suspected drug dealer is murdered. The two apparently unconnected deaths lead to a web of intrigue. Friendships are tested and lives are put on the line as it unfolds. The drama is a taut six-part conspiracy thriller looking at the relationship between politics, big business and the press. Also stars Bill Nighy (Love Actually) and Kelly MacDonald (Trainspotting).
