It stars Emma Thompson as Zoë Boehm, Ruth Wilson as Sarah Trafford, Adeel Akhtar as Hamza, and Nathan Stewart-Jarrett as Downey.
The 8-part TV series is based on the Zoë Boehm novels by Mick Herron, adapted by Morwenna Banks.
But fans might be curious to know: will it be getting another season?

Down Cemetery Road has not yet been renewed for Season 2, nor has it been cancelled.
The show currently has a 79% Fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes, with a 64% audience score.
The original book’s author recently discussed the odds of another season in an interview with TV Insider.
“We’ll see how this one goes with viewers. I think viewers are going to enjoy it very much, so who knows what will happen,” he said.
While the four Zoë Boehm books don’t contain the character of Sarah, the author suggests that if there are more seasons, that may need to change in the TV shows.
“I think if any sequel were made, it would have to include both characters in the same kind of dynamic that they have played in Down Cemetery Road. It’s the way they play off each other. I think that they can do the humor as well as compassion and danger as well. All the different things they go through, they do so well. It’s a joy to watch, I thought,” he said.
The next three books are The Last Voice You Hear, Why We Die, and Smoke and Whispers.
“I think they’re going to try and put it into three seasons altogether, so, it would be about condensing those three books into two more seasons. And they may, depending on what they want to do — I mean, Sarah doesn’t actually feature in Book 2 and 3, she comes into Book 4, but I think they might bring Sarah in, create another storyline for her. But we’ll see. I’ve got no idea. That’s what they’re sort of working out now,” he said. We’ll have to wait and see!
