The excellent Daniel Mays gets a rare decent TV role in Tony Marchant's gripping and fraught BBC drama.

He plays the wired Eddie, just released on licence from prison after serving 10 years for strangling a girl. But did he do it? His probation officer, Paula (Anna Friel), is back from suspension after a previous case went horribly wrong. These two discredited characters slowly start to connect.
