Who is in the Suspect cast alongside James Nesbitt as new drama airs on Channel 4

Suspect on Channel 4, is an eagerly anticipated detective series which spans eight tightly written two-handers. With episode one airing at 9pm this evening (June 19), viewers will be introduced to an ensemble cast of recognisable British talent.

Portraying veteran detective, Danny Frater, is none other than James Nesbitt, with his character turning up at a hospital mortuary to find his estranged daughter, Christina, dead in front of his eyes. After the autopsy revealed suicide as the cause of death, Danny refuses to accept the judgement, thinking that she was murdered, and sets out on a chaotic crusade to uncover the truth.

Learning about her increasingly dark and complicated life leads to Danny coming face-to-face with his own failings as a man and a father. Each episode seemingly uncovers a new character, and subsequent actor, who has their own tale to tell with regards to his investigation - hence why each episode is titled with the name of a different character from the show.
