German detective Max Winter (played by Austrian actor Julian Looman), is the charismatic, warm cop, while his reluctant Brit partner Miranda Blake (Keeping Faith star Elen Rhys) is conscientious and quieter.
They might rub each other up the wrong way, but a twist of fate forces them to work with each other, cracking all sorts of cases, from murders to sports doping in the cycling world.
Written by The Good Karma Hospital and Trust Me creator Dan Sefton, the show – which has just been commissioned by the BBC for a second series – will leave you guessing whodunit, and wondering how quickly you can book a getaway to a Spanish island!
Here, stars Julian, 34, and Elen, who will be 36 on 26 November, reveal what to expect…

Julian: It’s a feelgood series about two mismatched cops with different approaches to investigating a crime. There’s lots of sun and fun – and five different languages spoken on set. I will also be dubbing myself into German for the first time!
