The BBC have confirmed that The Escape Artist starring David Tennant will begin on BBC One at 9pm on Tuesday 29th October.
The Escape Artist
Will Burton (David Tennant) ,
a talented junior barrister of peerless intellect and winning charm,
specialises in spiriting people out of tight legal corners, hence his nickname
- The Escape Artist.
Much to the aggravation of his courtroom rival, Maggie
Gardner (Sophie Okonedo), Will is in high demand, as he has never lost a case.
But when Will’s talents acquit Liam Foyle (Toby Kebbell), who is standing
trial for an horrific and high-profile murder, that courtroom brilliance comes
back to bite him. Foyle walks free, but he is a serial killer. It’s only a
matter of time until he finds his next victim.
And, sure enough, he kills again.
Watch the trailer here:
The Escape Artist is written by David Wolstencroft (Spooks,
Shooting Dogs) and produced by Hilary Bevan Jones (State Of Play , Restless) and Paul Frift (Room At The
Top, Restless) and directed by Brian Welsh (Black Mirror, In Our Name, Mayday)
the executive producers are David Wolstencroft and Matthew Read for BBC.
The series will be released as a two disc DVD set on Monday 28th
October.
