Series 5 of ITV's hit crime drama series 'The Bay' starts this Sunday night, 2nd March, at 9pm and sees Daniel Ryan back as DI Tony Martin.
The new series sees the team investigating the murder of a 23 year-old university student who is found dead on the edge of the docks. As the team dig further into the investigation they uncover hidden friendships and secret liaisons as the anger rises in the student community.
This series sees DI Manning under more pressure than ever as his department's resources are overstretched. He starts questioning his professional judgement and cutting corners to make progress in finding the killer which leaves him doubting his ability to lead the team.
In a recent interview with ITV Daniel talked about his delight that the show is now in its fifth series saying, "To get a fifth series of something is the most extraordinary thing. I've had it once before in my life where I've done six series of something and getting to just reconnect, getting to tell every part of a character's life, being part of their journey is something you can only ever dream of."
He also talked about how extraordinary Morecambe is as a setting for the show, "It never fails to take my breath away when I get off the train. It always seems to be one of those days where the light is amazing and you can't believe how beautiful it is. When we contrast the characters in the series in the deepest of despair set against this extraordinary beauty, there's a kind of melancholy that we wouldn't get anywhere else."
Daniel will be appearing on James Martin's Saturday morning show this Saturday 1st March.
Episodes 1-3 will air from Sunday to Tuesday on ITV1, with the remaining 3 episodes being shown at the same times the following week. All 6 episodes will also be available on ITVX.
Daniel Ryan is available for voiceovers from Anthea Represents. Click his image for his profile page and voiceover showreel.
