Inside Man: How many episodes are there, who's in the cast, and what's the new BBC drama about?
Inside Man is the latest drama from BBC that is delighting fans, but what is this gripping killer series about and how can you watch it?
The new BBC series, Inside Man, stars David Tennant and Stanley Tucci and seems set to be one of the most gripping thrillers this Autumn.
Inside Man premiered on BBC One on Monday, September 26, 2022, and fans are already obsessed with this shocking drama that comes from Steven Moffatt, the primary writer, and creator of Sherlock and Dracula.
The miniseries has now reached it's finale and the Inside Man ending is not one to miss, but what is this show about, who is in the cast and how can you watch it? Here is what you need to know...
Inside Man plot explained
A synopsis of the story from the BBC reads, "In the US, a prisoner on death row is seeking atonement as he faces execution. On a train in England, a journalist is looking for a story. In a quiet little village, a vicar is picking up his son’s maths tutor from the station. All four are about to become entangled in a dilemma that could lead one of them to murder."
Without giving away any spoilers, the three key characters in this series begin to interact with one another in surprising ways as a lot of boundaries about right and wrong begin to be blurred as the characters make ethically dubious decisions.
