A North East actress has landed the role of playing Raoul Moat's ex Samantha Stobbart in ITV's new true crime drama about the killer, which launched on Sunday night.
Shots of the cast on set surfaced last year, with ITV confirming that the shocking events of July 2010 would be turned into a primetime series by World Productions, the company behind hit BBC dramas Vigil, Bodyguard and Line of Duty.
The Hunt for Raoul Moat cast is led by Bodyguard actor Matt Stokoe as the killer, with Inspector George Gently favourite Lee Ingelby playing Chief Superintendent Neil Adamson, the cop at the forefront of the huge search to track down Moat. And some else who takes an important part in the three part show is Sally Messham as Samantha.
