Netflix viewers don’t have long to watch ‘gripping’ British crime drama
The countdown is on!
A ‘compelling’ crime thriller that many viewers rushed to binge-watch will only be up on Netflix for two more weeks.
First airing in 2014, The Missing was a British anthology drama written by brothers Harry and Jack Williams.
The first season followed the search for a missing boy in France, with the case led by detective Julien Baptiste, played by Tchéky Karyo.
The story unfolded after Tony Hughes (James Nesbitt) and his wife Emily (Frances O’Connor) travelled to France from the UK with their five-year-old son Oliver (Oliver Hunt).
Set in 2006, the family were in the country during the FIFA World Cup and lost their son while watching a football game in a crowded outdoor bar.
