2018 UK thriller Trauma will screen on BBC First in mid-June.
The 3 part series is written by Mike Bartlett (Doctor Foster) and stars Adrian Lester (Hustle, Doomsday, Primary Colors), John Simm (Doctor Who, Mad Dogs, Life on Mars), Lyndsey Marshal (Trespass Against Us, Hereafter, The Hours).
It aired in the UK in February.
A tense, edge-of-your-seat thriller from Mike Bartlett, creator of smash hit Doctor Foster. It centres on two fathers, Dan and Jon, whose very different lives collide when Dan’s teenage son tragically dies under the care of trauma consultant Jon in a central London hospital. Devastated and heartbroken, Don, a working class father struggling to make ends meet, believes Jon is responsible for his son’s death and, as he strives for justice, Dan begins to unpick the fabric of Jon’s distinctly contrasting life as a high-achieving surgeon with a beautiful home and family.
Trauma is an intricate, fast-paced thriller that explores what happens when the very institutions established to protect us let us down.
Wednesdays at 8.30pm from June 13 on BBC First.
