What’s Criminal Record About?
The eight-episode series sees Capaldi and Jumbo as detectives in a tug-of-war over a high-profile murder case.
Hailing from BAFTA nominee Paul Rutman, Criminal Record is “a powerful, character-driven drama set in the heart of contemporary London. An anonymous phone call draws two brilliant detectives into a confrontation over an old murder case – one a young woman in the early stages of her career, the other a well-connected man determined to protect his legacy. The series touches on issues of race, institutional failure, and the quest to find common ground in a polarized Britain,” per the official synopsis.
The cast also includes Charlie Creed-Miles (King Arthur, Wild Bill), Dionne Brown (Queenie), Shaun Dooley (Official Secret, The Woman in Black, The Awakening), Stephen Campbell Moore (The Bank Job, Masters of the Air), Zoë Wanamaker (Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, My Week with Marilyn), Rasaq Kukoyi (Andor, His House), Maisie Ayres, Aysha Kala (The Undeclared War), BAFTA TV Award winner Cathy Tyson (Help). and Tom Moutchi (Famalam, The Hustle).
Criminal Record is produced for Apple TV+ by Tod Productions and STV Studios and executive produced by BAFTA Scotland Award winner Elaine Collins (Shetland Vera), Rutman, Capaldi, and Jumbo. The series is directed by BAFTA Award winner Jim Loach (Save Me Too, Oranges and Sunshine) and Shaun James Grant (The Devil’s Hour).
