LISA DWAN on playing a defiant detective looking for answers about the past

Troubled WATERS

BLACKSHORE SAT, 9PM, U&DRAMA DRAMA (BOX SET, U)

Lisa Dwan is the first to admit that her haunted crime-fighter, DI Fia Lucey, makes quite an impression in the opening scene of Irish noir Blackshore.

‘She breaks someone’s nose – and isn’t apologetic!’ explains the Bloodlands star, joining TV Times for an exclusive interview ahead of the six-parter’s arrival on U&Drama this week. ‘I fell in love with her straight away!’

Written by Kate O’Riordan (Smother), the mystery begins with ambitious Fia working in Dublin, but, after a series of allegations about her conduct, she’s banished to rural Blackwater. It’s a place uncomfortably close to her (fictional) home town of Blackshore, where tragedy befell the community two decades ago when Fia’s father killed everyone in her family except her in a murder-suicide after he was linked to the disappearance of a local teenage girl.

Here, Lisa tells us more…

What appealed to you about playing Fia?

Shona KIDNAPPED!

David Platt thought he was proper clever when he nabbed the bag of dirty cash that Damon Hay had left for Sarah - with the unexpected windfall, he was able to buy No.8 from Gail. He's not quite so smug now, though, is he? The money, it transpired, belonged to Harvey Gaskell, Damon's brother, and the incarcerated gangster wants it back. With interest. Harvey has already made threats to David, via his stooges on the outside, and this week he ups the ante and has Shona kidnapped.
