We Hunt Together, the six-part crime drama written by Gaby Hull, starts Wednesday 27th May on Alibi. The series will air Wednesday and Thursday nights for three weeks, with catch up available on Sky, Virgin, Talk Talk and BT TV.

UKTV Original series stars Eve Myles, Babou Ceesay, Hermione Corfield and Dipo Ola. With guest stars Nigel Harman, Kris Marshall, Vicki Pepperdine, Steffan Rhodri, Neil Stuke and Perry Fitzpatrick also appearing throughout the series.

A brave new take on a classic cat and mouse story, We Hunt Together explores the intoxication of sexual attraction, the dangerous power of emotional manipulation and how finding a volatile form of solace in another can have dire consequences for those who dare to get in the way.

Freddy (Hermione Corfield) is magnetic, highly intelligent, disarmingly charming...and she might just be a psychopath. Baba (Dipo Ola), on the other hand, is vulnerable, compassionate yet damaged and a former child soldier, whose chance encounter with Freddy turns his world upside down. He's desperate to suppress his predisposition for extreme violence, but the pair's lust for each other takes over and creates a truly deadly duo.

Meanwhile, DS Lola Franks (Eve Myles) and DI Jackson Mendy (Babou Ceesay) face their own unconventional relationship, as the pair get thrown together to work on a high-profile murder case and try to catch the killers. Jackson's history of working in police anti-corruption infuriates Lola, so too does his firmly held belief that no one can ever be held entirely responsible for their actions. Their differing opinions cause conflict during their investigation, as does Lola's inability to deal with her own demons which have the potential to push them both to breaking point.

We Hunt Together is a six-part UKTV Original crime drama for pay TV channel Alibi. The series is produced by BBC Studios Productions.
