ITV release the trailer for new drama 'Innocent'

ITV have released the trailer for their new four-part drama Innocent co-created by Unforgotten's Chris Lang.

David (Lee Ingleby) has spent 7 years in prison for the murder of his wife. However, when he is released on a technicality, a cloud of suspicion stills hang over his head. How is he going to rebuild the life he lost? Who should he trust? And above all - is he truly innocent?

David has always maintained he had nothing to do with his spouse’s murder, and the only person who seems to believe him is his brother Phil (Daniel Ryan). While Phil has endlessly campaigned for his innocence, David is still detested by Tara’s family, particularly her childless sister Alice (Hermione Norris).

She, together with her husband Rob (Adrian Rowlins), became guardians to David’s kids and the pair now enjoy a far more comfortable lifestyle than they did when Tara was alive, raising their young family with David’s estate money. As David and Phil campaign for his release, Chief Inspector William Bleech (Nigel Lindsay) has a lot to lose should the conviction be overturned. If David is acquitted, Detective Cathy Hudson (Angel Coulby) is in line to replace the chief inspector – but no one knows she and Bleech are in a secret relationship.

Innocent starts in May on ITV.
