This month, a new British drama similar to Sally Lindsay’s cozy mystery series and Stephen Graham’s historical drama is set to premiere on Netflix, with the lead role being played by the popular actress from Happy Valley, Siobhan Finneran.
In the year 2017, the critically acclaimed British crime show “Broadchurch” ended its run, creating a void that viewers were eager to see filled.
Tune into The Loch, or Loch Ness for those outside of Scotland, the latest mystery series airing on ITV featuring Siobhan Finneran and Laura Fraser, known for their roles in The Missing.
Back then, I pondered if “The Loch” would be the next big thing like “Broadchurch“, given how its gripping mysteries were set against a stunning landscape.
This story unfolds along the picturesque coastline of Scotland, focusing primarily on the investigations conducted by local police officer Annie Redford (Fraser) and her tough, straight-talking counterpart Lauren Quigley (Finneran). Together, they delve into a string of murders.
Actor Don Gilet, who plays a role on Death in Paradise, is additionally part of the show’s cast as character Blake Albrighton, a psychological profiler.
In a conversation with Digital Spy, Siobhan Finneran mentioned that the crime drama maintains an air of mystery, since several characters are perceived as potentially suspicious throughout its narrative.
The Loch garnered generally positive reviews from critics, with the New Statesman suggesting it could be likened to a smaller version of Broadchurch. Meanwhile, the New York Times described it as an enjoyable pastime suitable for summer nights.
Stephen Brady, who has previously worked on shows like “Professor T” starring Ben Miller and the Channel 4 crime drama “Patience,” is the creator and writer of “The Loch.” Starting from July 26th, this six-part mystery series will be available to a new audience on Netflix.
Originally, it was aired globally under the title “Loch Ness,” and it appears that
The Loch aired on ITV in the UK, and is coming to Netflix on 26 July.
The latest print edition of Digital Spy is out now! Grab a copy of “Oasis – Live in ’25” from your local newsstands or online for only £8.99.
