Joining the cast are Matthew Gravelle ( Broadchurch) as DI Nathan Eason, Matt Bardock ( The Coroner) as Det. Returning to the series are Claudie Blakley ( Lark Rise to Candleford), who plays Colin’s wife, Louise, and Stephen Wight ( Bluestone 42), who plays DC Clive Grace. With the Night Stalker becoming ever more brazen, the clock starts ticking on Sutton’s strategy… The plan is to focus a vast surveillance operation around a key area of southeast London, deploying scores of additional officers to invisibly saturate the target area on a nightly basis. Sutton works with Detective Superintendent Simon Morgan and the dedicated “Operation Minstead” team, and proposes a strategy he believes can catch the culprit - one of Britain’s most prolific rapists. With an unknown burglar and rapist having evaded capture for so many years, DCI Colin Sutton is asked in 2009 to review the case. The drama explores how Sutton joined the case and helped to solve it in a matter of weeks, taking an incredibly dangerous criminal off the streets. Based on the diaries of now-former DCI Colin Sutton (read my interview with him here), Manhunt: The Night Stalker centers on the case of a notorious burglar and serial rapist who, between 19, left thousands of elderly people in Southeast London living in fear.
