Eve Myles and ex-Coronation Street actress Katherine Kelly join forces to track down a serial killer in a new drama series set in Bristol.
Based on the best-selling novel by Erik Axl Sund, The Crow Girl delves into the investigation of unidentified, battered young men found across Bristol, all of whom have been injected with the anaesthetic lidocaine.
DCI Jeanette Kilburn (Eve Myles) and her partner DI Lou Stanley (Dougray Scott) grapple with the case, enlisting the help of psychotherapist Dr Sophia Craven (Katherine Kelly) to provide a fresh perspective.
The new crime drama was filmed across Bristol, with a new ‘Bristol Metropolitan Police’ station created in the former Bank of England building on Wine Street. More filming took place in Castle Park and on Castle Bridge, with further filming taking place in Brean in neighbouring Somerset.
This new Paramount+ series is set to be one of the most significant crime dramas of early 2025. But who stars in the series and how can you tune in?
