Kierston Wareing stars in Martina Cole’s The Runaway starting on Sky1 on March 1st. I’ve added 2 trailers and stills from the 1st episode at Kierston Wareing Fan
Some people read one Martina Cole novel and stop there – the books being too nasty for their taste.
So this brutish new series about London criminals based on one of her blockbusters will not please those folk who like to gaze at the pretty cottages on Midsomer Murders or the 1920s fashions on Marple.
It’s an unflinching take on the world of nasty men, prostitutes, abused women and rotten coppers. If DCI Barnaby or Hercule Poirot stumbled into Cole’s world, they would get a knife across the face, a knee in the balls and flung into the gutter – probably by one of the women.
