The new crime series Annika will join Masterpiece’s programming.
Produced by Black Camel Pictures in co-production with Masterpiece and in association with All3Media International, Annika stars Nicola Walker as DI Annika Strandhed, the head of the new Marine Homicide Unit. The series follows her as she faces a steady stream of murder cases, all while juggling her professional and personal life with her teenage daughter.
The series will have a special premiere on PBS Passport and the PBS Masterpiece Prime Video Channel on April 17, 2022.
Susanne Simpson, executive producer for Masterpiece, commented, “Annika is a terrifically complicated, funny, one-of-a-kind character brought brilliantly to life by Nicola Walker. Fans of Unforgotten and Last Tango in Halifax have a lot to look forward to in Annika.”
Arabella Page Croft, producer for Black Camel Pictures, added, “I am absolutely delighted to see this hit Scottish show arrive stateside! We are thrilled to bring our irrepressible marine homicide squad chief Annika, played by the amazing Nicola Walker, to a new audience who we hope will delight in her literary life-musings and crime-solving prowess as much as the U.K. audience have loved it.”
