The Field of Blood
Set 1
Amidst the gritty Glasgow of the early 1980s, Paddy Meehan (Jayd Johnson) is struggling to make a name for herself in the macho newsroom of the Daily News. At work, Paddy is up against hardened reporters who doubt her; at home, she's fighting her rigid Catholic family, who just want her to get married. But Paddy's passion for digging into the darkest corners of the city comes first. She's not above crossing a few lines to get to the truth-and that dedication often puts her in the crosshairs, not just with her sexist colleagues, but with the desperate subjects of her stories.
This BBC series is based on the crime novels by Denise Mina. Set 1 contains two feature-length mysteries that comprise Series 1 and 2, which originally aired in 2011 and 2013, respectively.
