In this episode, we dive into Karen Pirie, the cold case drama on BritBox that blends forensic realism with feminist fire. Created by Emer Kenny and based on the books by Val McDermid, the show follows a young Scottish detective thrust into a high-profile murder investigation. Lauren Lyle plays Karen with a quiet fury and sharp wit, with some rebellion tossed in for good measure. From preserved bodies to buried departmental secrets, we look at what makes Karen Pirie the hit that it is.
