ACORN TV JUNE 2023 HIGHLIGHTS
Happy Valley Season 3 – New Episodes Premiere on Acorn TV and AMC+ Every Monday Through June 26
In the epic and unmissable final season, Sergeant Catherine Cawood (Sarah Lancashire, Julia, Last Tango in Halifax) discovers the remains of a gangland murder victim, sparking a chain of events that unwittingly leads her straight back to murderer and rapist Tommy Lee Royce (James Norton, McMafia, Little Women).
Catherine’s grandson Ryan (Rhys Connah, The Runaways) is now sixteen and has ideas of his own about what kind of relationship he wants to have with Tommy, the man Catherine still refuses to acknowledge as his father. Still battling the seemingly never-ending problem of drugs in the valley and those who supply them, Catherine is on the cusp of retirement. Will she solve this final case?
Cannes Confidential (Acorn TV Original) – New Series Premieres Monday, June 26
Set in the Cote d’Azur, Cannes Confidential is a blue-sky, romantic crime series starring French TV-drama actor Lucie Lucas (Clem, Porto and Gloria), Jamie Bamber (Strike Back, Marcella, Battlestar Galactica), and singer/actor Tamara Marthe (Profilage). The series centers on the relationship between an idealistic, local underdog female cop (Lucas) and an ex-conman (Bamber).
The pair are forced into an unlikely — and surprisingly successful — crime-fighting partnership, which sees them solve a murder case in each close-ended episode. However, the drama’s arc focuses on the main character’s quest to find the criminals who framed her father, a local-hero police officer who was jailed for a crime he did not commit.
Lost: Those Who Kill (Acorn TV US Exclusive) – Binge Premieres Monday, June 5
Criminal profiler Louise Bergstein is on edge after her most recent case, battling debilitating insomnia when a Copenhagen couple is brutally murdered outside their home. Determined to track down the killer, she teams up with police investigator Frederik Havgaard.
All evidence points to a young man called Bjørn with a dark and desperate past, and when Bjørn’s sister’s baby is abducted and Bjørn is found dead, the case is closed and Louise leaves the city for a fresh start in Jutland. Three years later, she’s dragged back onto the case when a new suspect is linked to the killings, reawakening the dreadful truth and traumas of the past.
