NEW DRAMA

Nine Bodies in a Mexican Morgue

Saturday, 9.25pm, BBC1 (box set, BBC iPlayer)

The survivors of a plane crash discover that the rainforests of Mexico are a hostile place to land in BBC1's gripping new thriller Nine Bodies in a Mexican Morgue. However, the biggest threat to their survival isn't the dangerous wildlife or the inhospitable surroundings - it's actually one of their own group, who is systematically murdering all of the others...

The six-part series is the latest project from Magpie Murders and Foyle's War creator Anthony Horowitz, and if the subject matter sounds significantly darker than his recent work, that's very much intentional on the writer's part.
