The Interrogation
from archive.org
Kenneth Cranham and Alex Lanipekun star in 26 hard-hitting crime dramas, each set in a police interrogation room.
Idiosyncratic detective duo Max Matthews and Sean Armitage are from different generations and different worlds, but together they make a remarkable team. In this powerful, unconventional police procedural, we join the detective duo in the interview room as they practise their unique style of interrogation in a bid to extract a confession.
Each of the 26 dramas focus on a different suspect, every one with their own story and version of events. Among the varied characters we hear from are Rod, a Premier League footballer accused of rape; Jermaine, a ruthless gang leader; Marc, an ex-policeman suspected of domestic violence; and Beverley, who has come into the station to report her elderly father as missing. As the details of their crimes are revealed, we get under their skin and slowly come to understand what motivated them to do what they did.
Compelling and compassionate, these dramas probe some of today's most troubling moral issues, inviting us to face hard truths but still holding out the possibility of redemption. Created by multi-award-winning playwright Roy Williams, The Interrogation's naturalistic dialogue and virtuoso real-time scenes make it a police procedural like no other, and one that grips from start to finish.
