Showtrial is the latest primetime drama to be airing on the BBC this year, which revolves around a divisive legal case.
It follows privileged university student Talitha Campbell who finds herself in a lot of trouble when a fellow pupil she once threatened goes missing under mysterious circumstances.
Solicitor Cleo Roberts will have to do her best to defend the arrogant and rude prime suspect, as she has a reputation to rebuild.
Showtrial will be a five part miniseries that will begin on Sunday, and comes from the mind of Ben Richards, who also helped create the Sky series COBRA.
Is Talitha Campbell a callous murderer, or is she being falsely accused?
