Netflix introduces a long-lost police drama featuring Don Gilet, known from Death in Paradise
In the serene landscapes of a Scottish rural community, a chilling drama unfolds in the six-part series The Loch, now streaming on Netflix and ITVX in the UK.
The series, which originally aired on ITV in 2017, has received largely positive responses for its gripping storyline and captivating performances. Netflix has now added this thrilling mystery to its library, giving viewers another reason to tune in.
The series is set in a picturesque town near Loch Ness, where a local man's body is found at the foot of a mountain with a gruesome twist - a sliver of his brain removed. This grisly discovery sets off a chain of events that terrorise the close-knit community.
At the heart of the drama are two strong-willed women: local detective sergeant Annie Redford, played by Laura Fraser, and DCI Lauren Quigley, a Glasgow cop leading the murder investigation, portrayed by Siobhan Finneran.
Annie Redford, a wife, mother, and cop, is played by Annie Finneran, who brings a sense of protectiveness and determination to the role. Despite her long-standing service, she remains a detective constable, and this is her first murder case in The Loch.
John Sessions delivers a compelling performance as local chief inspector Frank Smilie, while Don Gilet plays forensic psychologist Blake Albrighton, a charming and flirty character whose methods are not universally liked.
The series also stars Laura Fraser and Siobhan Finneran, who would later be seen in other popular shows such as Death in Paradise and Broadchurch.
For viewers in the US, The Loch is available on Acorn TV, offering a chance to delve into this chilling mystery across the pond.
Whether you're a fan of suspenseful dramas or just looking for a new series to binge, The Loch is a captivating addition to your watchlist. With its intriguing plot, stunning location, and talented cast, it's sure to keep you on the edge of your seat.
