New sex episode drama two episodes a week on Friday night times three weeks

As a huge storm starts to form far out at sea, a teacher and former detective, Jackie Ellis (Kelly Reilly), finds the body of her 8-year-old student, Cefin, who appears to have drowned.

This shocking discovery stirs up the town's memories of an unresolved case from three years earlier—the disappearance of Jackie’s niece, Nessa, which ruined her career.

Cefin's death brings back Jackie's old partner, Detective Eric Bull (Rafe Spall), to lead the investigation in a community where he previously failed. Believing the two cases are connected, Jackie and Bull must work together to uncover hidden secrets in Morfa Halen before the storm hits and wipes away any evidence

A new sex episode drama you say? I’m in 😉

NewAgeNewMe · 23/01/2026 07:24

Snap 😉

Oh wow, just what needed for Friday night, a sex episode!
Although I shall try to shoehorn this one in. I like anything set on/near marshes as I live in marshland and we frogs like to keep it local. It will have to join the queue behind the last two eps of Run Away, and latest episode of Hijack.
And I can’t start watching till about ten tonight for obvious reasons.

rightoguvnor · 23/01/2026 09:55

Just noticed not till next week anyway, something to look forward to.

This shows as having been on at 2am on my Sky app just now!

berlinbaby2025 · 30/01/2026 09:31

I’ve watched the first episode and it was OK, could have been more tense. Why on earth Rafe Spall is talking with a (terrible) Brummie accent I don’t know but it’s hugely distracting.

Blondeshavemorefun · 30/01/2026 10:24

Yes it’s on at 2am and 9

i have seen as sky recorded it at 2am (like Matlock) but obv not going to post/spoil but I did enjoy

I think Rafe Spall is a Brummie?

No, he's a born and bred Londoner.

BlondeFool · 30/01/2026 14:45

Rafe’s accent is terrible. Totally inconsistent. I’ve enjoyed the first episode. Think it’s going to be a slow burner.

BlondeFool · 30/01/2026 15:47

And why does Kelly’s character have a London accent when her dad’s Welsh and it implies she grew up in the village. The accents are very confusing.

Blondeshavemorefun · 30/01/2026 16:18

Accents obv go over my head. They all sounded normal to me

Rollergirl11 · 30/01/2026 20:12

Yes to Rafe Spall’s accent. And Kelly Reilly’s lip filler is driving me insane. She can’t even close her mouth.

Ha! I was going to post the same. Too swollen in the middle. Although I do love her and got a girl crush.

burnoutbabe · 30/01/2026 21:14

There was a lot of mumbling! I enjoyed it but I couldn’t quite work out how the land worked.
was spider island where you had up go by boat and Kieran lived? But also you can drive there as rafe did? And there is a big farm owned by grandad Bevin on it?
was red head lady pregnant? Ie the scan? And is rafe gay and met the bloke on tinder?

Blondeshavemorefun · 30/01/2026 21:17
