The cast line up for new Scottish thriller, The Control Room, has been announced, with Iain De Caestecker and Joanna Vanderham leading an impressive ensemble.
The BBC drama is currently being filmed in Glasgow and follows the story of ambulance service emergency call handler Gabe, played by De Caestecker, who has his world "turned upside down when he receives a desperate life-and-death call from a woman who appears to know him", according to the BBC.
It's another programme to add to Scotland's repertoire, with Vigil starring Martin Compston occupying the prime time Sunday night spot at the moment.
Produced by Bafta and RTS Award-winning writer Nick Leather, the 3-part series is composed of sixty minute episodes, during which Gabe is "under pressure to work out" who the lady is, resulting in him making "a decision that threatens to have devastating consequences.”
