Want to watch The Control Room so you can get your teeth into a new thriller? Here's how.
The Control Room is a new three-part thriller series set in Glasgow which follows Gabe (Iain De Caestecker), an emergency call handler who works for the Scottish Ambulance Service. Iain's ordinary life is flipped upside-down when he takes a life-or-death call from a woman who appears to know him, and Gabe is placed under pressure to figure out who she is.
The Control Room has been written by BAFTA and RTS award-winner, Nick Leather (Mothers' Day, Murdered for Being Different) and comes from the producers of Sherlock, Dracula and Inside Men. With that sort of pedigree on board, this new BBC thriller is sure to have us on the edge of our seats.
