Want to watch The Responder online anywhere in the world? Here's how!
The Responder is a brand-new crime drama based on former police officer Tony Schumacher's real-life experience as an urgent response officer. It promises to give us a new perspective on the many challenges faced by frontline officers.
The show stars Martin Freeman as Chris Carson, a policeman juggling marriage troubles with work stress as he tackles a series of night shifts in Liverpool alongside a new rookie partner, Rachel (Adelayo Adedayo).
Talking about his role, Martin Freeman said: "The Responder is like nothing else I've ever done before, and the reason I wanted to play Chris is that he is a great mixture of vulnerability and strength. I think there is something about a man of few words that is attractive.
"There's a reason why people like characters that don't have to over-explain themselves and I think Chris is one of them. He's very intelligent, he's emotionally smart, but he's a copper."
