In Plain Sight - ITV
Really looking forward to this. It's about the serial killer Peter Manuel who terrorised Lanarkshire in the 1950s. It starts next month and stars Martin Compston as Peter Manuel, and Douglas Henshall as Detective Muncie.

Not due to start until Wednesday, but episode 1 is available to view via the ITV hub. I watched it this morning and thought it was really well executed. Looking forward to seeing how it progresses in the next two episodes.

Agree with the above, well worth giving it a go after the first episode

It's directed by John Strickland who directed Bodies and Line of Duty. There's been a spate of real-life serial killer stories lately but I am still looking forward to this one.

It seems to be serial killer season on TV at the moment. This is the 3rd drama in as many weeks about a serial killer. Ho Ho Ho.

I he's brilliant. His real accent is great to hear as well - couldn't believe he's not a Londoner a la Line of Duty.

Having seen him in Monarch of the Glen with his normal accent to me it was odd hearing the accent in Line of Duty

Did the court case really happen like that?

Was looking forward to it, but I found the first episode all rather muddled and lacking, more tension in the music soundtrack than on the screen.

I thought it was a cracking start, from the slap from Muncie to the tormenting of Mary - really really tense.

Both leads were very good I thought.
If it had been fiction I'd be complaining that the prosecution at the first trial we saw must have been ludicrously incompetent to let him get off, but ... seems that is what happened.
