Showtrial S1
Celine Buckens (Warrior, War Horse) was nominated for Best Supporting Actress at the 2022 BAFTAS and International Emmys as Talitha Campbell, the arrogant daughter of a wealthy entrepreneur who is arrested following the disappearance of fellow student Hannah Ellis, the hard-working daughter of a single mother.
From the makers of Vigil and Line of Duty, Showtrial switches between both sides of the legal battle, as defence and prosecution fight for their version of what really happened to Hannah, and the truth about Talitha: Falsely accused? Or callous murderer?
As Metro (UK) says, “By this point, it seems the makers of Line of Duty can do no wrong. The verdict on their intriguing legal thriller is in, and it’s another triumph.”
