Sky has released the official trailer for the upcoming Sky Original series Under Salt Marsh. The series stars Kelly Reilly (Yellowstone, Pride & Prejudice) as Jackie Ellis. Rafe Spall (Trying, Life of Pi) plays Detective Eric Bull. The gripping new crime drama is set in the fictional Welsh town of Morfa Halen.
THE PREMISE
Created, written and directed by Claire Oakley (Make Up), the six-part series begins as a once-in-a-generation storm rolls in from the sea. During this storm, former detective-turned-teacher Jackie Ellis (Reilly) makes a shocking discovery. This discovery reopens the wounds of a cold case from three years ago. It cost her both her career and her family’s trust.
Jackie reluctantly reunites with her estranged police partner, Eric Bull (Spall), and together they dive back into an investigation that threatens to shake Morfa Halen to its core. Together, they must confront a community haunted by secrets and fractured by grief, before the incoming storm washes away the evidence forever.
With a stellar supporting cast including Naomi Yang (Chimerica), Jonathan Pryce (The Crown), Dinita Gohil (Treason), and Brian Gleeson (Bad Sisters). Kimberley Nixon (Fresh Meat), and Harry Lawtey (Industry) are also in the supporting cast. Under Salt Marsh blends atmospheric crime storytelling with a deeply human portrait of resilience and community.
Additional cast includes Mark Stanley (Happy Valley, The Reckoning), Dino Fetscher (Fool Me Once, Foundation), Lizzie Annis (The Witcher: Blood Origin, Extraordinary), Rhodri Meilir (Pren Ar y Bryn, Craith), and Julian Lewis Jones (House of the Dragon, Wheel of Time).
