OUT THERE TRAILER
FOR NEW ITV THRILLER TV SERIES
The year has started relatively blandly, with only Tim Allen's new sitcom Shifting Gears making a big splash with huge 6+ million viewers for the 1st episode, marking it the best Wednesday premiere in years, but the rest of
January will lack much excitement. One of the very few new shows to hit the small screens this month is OUT THERE six part thriller opening at ITV January 19th (2nd episode on the 20th) with Martin Clunes in the lead role.
The series starts Sunday, January 19th |
OUT THERE
depicts
the surreptitious invasion of the land our farmer cherishes, with
devastating consequences, as his livelihood, homestead and family life
are threatened by local county lines drugs dealers: urban gangs using
the British countryside as a field of operations, moving drugs and money
between their inner-city hubs and provincial areas.
Martin Clunes plays Nathan Williams, a man who runs a farm which has
been in his family for generations, caught in a numbing rhythm of work
and grief following the death of his wife, Sabine, two years previously.
A single parent to teenager Johnny (Louis Ashbourne Serkis),
Nathan is uniquely placed and possesses enough pent-up energy to take on
the gangs that threaten to engulf his son.
Consequently, he embarks on a personal journey that will take him ever
further out of his comfort zone into a dark alternative world as he
fights to protect his family, his homestead and his legacy. He’s missed
all the clues that the country idyll around him has been fatally
compromised, contaminated by waves of criminality spreading and mutating
virus-like from the city.
Now Nathan must accept that the rustic atmosphere of his childhood is
long gone, replaced by something altogether more perilous. And the only
way for Nathan to survive in this brave new world is to learn the rules
and fight back.
The world is definitely different and more challenging now for the young generation. The young boy looks really familiar, but I can't place where I have seen him...
