When a car containing a possible suicide note is pulled out of Strangford Lough, Northern Irish police detective Tom Brannick (James Nesbitt) quickly connects it to an infamous cold case with enormous personal significance.

Filmed in and around Belfast and Strangford Lough, Bloodlands is directed by Pete Travis (Omagh, The Go-Between) and produced by Christopher Hall (The Durrells, Critical), and is produced with funding from Northern Ireland Screen. The executive producers are Jed Mercurio, Jimmy Mulville and Mark Redhead for HTM Television and Tommy Bulfin for the BBC.
