Hailed as the Scottish version of Fargo, viewers and critics have been lapping up Guilt on BBC2. But what does the future hold for the series?
Guilt began with brothers Max and Jake driving home from a wedding, and accidentally knocking a man over and killing him. In attempting to evade taking responsibility for their actions and cover them up, cracks in their forever fragile relationship start to reopen. Lawyer Max struggles to believe that any rules apply to him, while failed musician Jake often acts as Max's unwanted moral compass. Max ends up doing a stint in prison, while Jake attempts to follow his dreams during the course of the series, with supporting characters arriving to stir up trouble for the brothers. Sharp scripts and terrific acting explore themes around guilt and family relationships in the show, with remarkable results. With season 3 landing on BBC2, viewers are asking if there will be a season 4 to follow.
