Episode 1

Duration: 1 hour

First broadcast: on BBC One LondonLatest broadcast: on BBC HD

Two-part police thriller, written by Mick Ford and starring Hugh Bonneville and Janet McTeer in a reprisal of their Five Days characters, Detective Superintendent Barclay and Detective Sergeant Amy Foster.

When extremists kidnap two seven year-old boys from very different backgrounds and promise to release them only if their radical demands are met, the case falls into the hands of the intuitive and pragmatic Iain Barclay.

Faced with a relatively inexperienced and increasingly unreliable team, Barclay soon calls his firm friend and faithful deputy Amy Foster out of early retirement and away from the bottle to support him in solving what emerges to be a highly sensitive crime. Show less
