The first episode debuted yesterday on Acorn TV, and the three-parter sees Clarke take on the titular role as DCI Ellis, a tenacious Black female cop who is parachuted into failing investigations. She is joined in each feature-length episode by her \u201cright-hand man\u201d DS Harper, played by Andrew Gower. Ellis is used to being dismissed and overlooked despite being a first-class murder detective, and as she arrives at a different police station in each episode, will have to win over the local teams and immerse herself in the cases she\u2019s come to solve. The atmospheric police procedural is being taken out globally by All3Media International.<\/p>\n<div style=\"display: block; position: relative; max-width: 690px;\">\n \t                <div style=\"padding-top: 56.2504%;\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<video data-video-id=\"6364191353112\" \n\t\t\t\t\tdata-account=\"1120308147\" \n\t\t\t\t\tdata-player=\"default\" \n\t\t\t\t\tdata-embed=\"default\" \n\t\t\t\t\tdata-application-id \n\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"video-js\" \n\t\t\t\t\tcontrols=\"\"\n                    loop autoplay\n\t\t\t\t\tstyle=\"width: 100%; height: 100%; position: absolute; top: 0px; bottom: 0px; right: 0px; left: 0px;\"><\/div><\/video>\n\t\t\t\t\t<script src=\"\/\/players.brightcove.net\/1120308147\/default_default\/index.min.js\"><\/script><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Clarke sits down with\u00a0<em>TV Drama Weekly\u00a0<\/em>to talk about the tenderness and strength in the character of DCI Ellis and the privilege it has been to bring this to life on screen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sharon D Clarke, star of Inspector Ellis, sits down with\u00a0World Screen Newsflash\u00a0to talk about the tenderness and strength in the character of DCI Ellis and the privilege it has been to bring this to life on screen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":350,"featured_media":21727,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[9901,9900],"class_list":["post-21726","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-inspector-ellis","tag-sharon-d-clarke","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
