From the multi-award-winning producers of Line of Duty comes the brand new gritty, gripping British drama Save Me. Written by and starring the multi-talented Lennie James (The Walking Dead, Line of Duty), alongside renowned, must-watch star Suranne Jones (Doctor Foster, Scott & Bailey).
Nelson “Nelly” Rowe (James) is a ducker and a diver, a charmer, a chancer, a fighter and a liar. He ‘likes a drink’, spending most of his time in the local pub, and he loves whoever he’s sleeping with. He’s also a man who should know better at his age but couldn’t care less…that is until his whole world comes crashing down around him.
When Nelly’s 13-year-old daughter, who he barely knows goes missing, her mother Claire (Jones), is convinced of his guilt. Before he knows it he’s been arrested and charged with Kidnapping.
Desperate to clear his name Nelly, looks to his community for help. Hell-bent on finding the perpetrator and saving his daughter, he will stop at nothing in his life-changing quest for truth.
