According to Entertainment Weekly, in A Confession, the Sherlock alum plays Detective Superintendent Steve Fulcher, who is investigating the disappearance of 22-year-old Sian O’Callaghan and piecing together her last movements before she vanished. Believing Sian may still be alive and held against her will, Fulcher initiates an urgent full-scale search operation. Through diligent and painstaking police work, Fulcher and his team discover CCTV footage of Sian in the High Street, which leads to vital clues in the investigation. Racing against time, Fulcher edges closer to a chief suspect, local taxi driver Christopher Halliwell, and ultimately finds himself standing on the precipice of a life-changing choice between following police protocol and catching a killer.

Also starring is Siobhan Finneran (Stan & Ollie)and Imelda Staunton (Harry Potter).

A Confession is directed by Paul Andrew Williams from a script by Jeff Pope.

A Confession, which premiered in ITV in 2019, premieres on BritBox in May.

The Sherlock star and Oscar-nominated and BAFTA-winning actress have been tapped to star in ITV’s upcoming new crime drama. 

The six-part true-story drama hails from writer Jeff Pope. The new series was unveiled Monday by ITV’s head of drama Polly Hill and will be co-produced by ITV Studios and Urban Myth Films.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, A Confession is based on the real-life event of the disappearance of a 22-year-old girl in March 2011 and will follow Detective Superintendent Steve Fulcher, deliberately breached police procedure and protocol to catch a killer, a decision that ultimately cost him his career and reputation.

“I found this is a fascinating story to tell on a number of levels,” said Pope “On one hand it is a brilliant piece of detective work, but in order to find both girls Fulcher felt he had to deny Halliwell his rights as a suspect. It brings into question how we want our police to behave when someone goes missing. Should Fulcher have been praised as a courageous officer fighting for the life of a girl, or lose his career for riding roughshod over the law?”

A Confession is expected to air on ITV in 2019.
