Robson Green has shared an exciting update on his new UK drama The Game (previously titled Catch You Later), revealing that the series is "coming soon".
Starring Green opposite McDonald & Dodds actor Jason Watkins, the Channel 5 thriller tells the story of a retired police detective named Huw Miller (Watkins) who is haunted by an unsolved case involving a sadistic serial killer.
When his new neighbour Patrick Harbottle (Green) moves in and repeats the killer's catchphrase, Huw is convinced that he has finally caught his man.
Taking to Instagram to share an update on the new series, Green shared a promo shot of himself and Watkins, which he captioned: "Coming very soon! "The Game" introduces retired detective Huw who finds himself drawn back into an unsolved case that continues to haunt him – and things soon take a chilling turn.
"Years ago, Huw failed to solve the case of The Ripton Stalker. And when new neighbour, Patrick, utters the chilling sign off used by the Stalker to taunt Huw - "catch you later" – Huw becomes convinced he's finally got his man."
