If you like stories of corruption and police dramas full of hard-hitting twists, "Pierre" will surely be the next show on your watchlist. It's a detective series about a duty solicitor who will stop at nothing to find out who killed his young, Black client.
That question will lead him to turn the screw on his co-workers in the police force as he discovers a web of institutional corruption.
Starring David Harewood, who you may have seen in "Homeland" and "Supergirl", in his first lead role, "Pierre" will run for six episodes with a cast that also includes "1917" star Dean-Charles Chapman, Michele Austin, Jason Flemyng, Christopher Fairbank, and Sara Powell. You can either watch the episodes weekly or binge them all in one go.
