'Deadwater Fell' with David Tennant Snags April Acorn TV Release

Mark your calendars: New David Tennant drama Deadwater Fell will premiere on Acorn TV this April.

To be fair, we already knew that it was headed our way at some point this spring, but now that we have an official airdate, it makes the wait much easier to deal with. The four-part mystery series will premiere on Monday, April 6, and will drop new episodes every week through the end of the month.

Tennant plays Tom Kendrick, a local Scottish GP with a picturesque marriage and family, who ends up accused of a heinous crime after his wife and three daughters die during a horrific fire - of which he is the only survivor. The case - and the debate surrounding who is responsible for the murders - rips apart their small community, as lines are drawn, secrets are revealed and the residents begin to question how well they really knew their friends.

Everyone, after all, has something to hide. It's the show's tagline for a reason.

Anna Madeley stars as Tom's wife Kate, who struggles with post-partum depression and other mental issues, while Cush Jumbo and Matthew McNulty play the Kendricks' best friends, who're going through some relationship problems of their own.
