Peter Capaldi fans are getting a first look at his latest Thriller performance.

The show will make its global debut with the first two episodes on Friday, January 12, 2024, followed by new episodes every Friday through February 23.

It promises to be a powerful, character-driven drama set in the heart of contemporary London.

An anonymous phone call draws two brilliant detectives into a confrontation over an old murder case – one a young woman in the early stages of her career, the other a well-connected man determined to protect his legacy.

The series touches on issues of race, institutional failure and the quest to find common ground in a polarized Britain.
