INTO THE WOODS: Annie, right, leads the search for Michael's wife

a prestigious private school, David Morrissey's character, Michael Polly, is an upstanding member of the community, until he finds himself at the centre of a murder investigation.

When he encounters the determined Detective Cassidy, a tense game of cat and mouse begins as she chips away at his composed exterior in search of the truth.

David, 61, known for his roles in State of Play and The Walking Dead, describes Gone as more of a psychological drama than a conventional thriller.

“We're very used to the sort of ‘crash, bang, wallop’ moments you often get in a psychological drama like this. But this story is about the pauses, the intrigue and the relationships,” he explains.
