This week, Britbox (October 25th) will introduce U.S. viewers to the ITV hit crime drama series Karen Pirie, and the title role is played by (Outlander) star Lauren Lyle, who drew both critical praise from the media while also landing big ratings for the network. Many U.S. fans are already excited about the show because it comes from the same producers of mega hits Line of Duty and Bodyguard.
DS Pirie is put in charge of reopening a murder investigation that has been the subject of a controversial true-crime podcast. The case focuses on a teenage barmaid by the name of Rosie Duff, who was found brutally murdered in a St. Andrew’s graveyard in 1996. Suspicion fell on the three male students who discovered her body.
