About the series

What it’s about

In an Oxfordshire village, two amateur detectives notice fish dying in their local river. They contact the water company, but its odd, evasive response only deepens their suspicion. What begins as a simple query turns into a determined investigation that continues to this day.

What hooks you

Directed by Joseph Bullman, the series gives the drama an urgent, documentary-like weight.

Who it’s for

It will appeal to those who like slow-burning mysteries rooted in real events, where ordinary people take on powerful institutions and the tension builds through persistence rather than action.
