In The Control Room emergency call handler Gabriel ‘Gabe’ Maver’s world is dramatically upended when he answers a 999 call from a distraught woman in a desperate life-or-death situation. As Gabe attempts to get the caller’s details, she recognizes him and asks ‘Gabo, is that you?’ before hanging up.
Showing over three consecutive nights, BBC One’s gripping new three-part thriller, The Control Room, is written by Nick Leather (Murdered for Being Different), and stars Iain De Caestecker as mild-mannered Gabe, who denies that he recognizes the woman’s voice.
