The gritty thriller series Down Cemetery Road has been getting a lot of attention, but what songs are in the show? Read on to find out.
The show premiered on Wednesday (October 29), with its first two episodes streaming now on Apple TV. Further episodes will arrive on a weekly basis, with the eighth and final episode set to premiere on December 10.
The show centres on Ruth Wilson’s Sarah Trafford, who becomes involved in the search for her missing neighbour, who has disappeared after a house explosion. She hires Emma Thompson’s Zoe Boehm, a private investigator, but the two become embroiled in a conspiracy.
Down Cemetery Road has been developed by British writer Morwenna Banks (Slow Horses, Funny Woman) and is based on Mick Herron’s 2003 novel of the same name. Watch the trailer here:
The show also stars Adeel Akhtar, Nathan Stewart-Jarrett and Darren Boyd and was shot in Bristol and the surrounding area in the summer of 2024.
It currently sits on a 77 per cent score on the review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, with a consensus reading: “A twisty mystery that grows more addictive as it unfolds, Down Cemetery Road is tonally imbalanced but has a steadfast centre of gravity in Emma Thompson’s flinty star turn”.
