The Beast Must Die

Vacationing Londoner Frances Cairnes (Cush Jumbo) wouldn't accept the Isle of Wight cops' conclusion that the hit-and-run death of her 6-year-old may never be solved. She insinuated herself in the home of her own suspect--arrogant businessman George Rattery (Jared Harris)--but her agenda will put her at odds with newly assigned PD Nigel Strangeways (Billy Howle). Miniseries take on the Cecil Day-Lewis classic co-stars Maeve Dermody, Geraldine James, Douggie McMeekin. 5 hrs. on two discs. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English.
