Coldwater

Ewen Bremner and Andrew Lincoln in Coldwater.

In his first major television role since The Walking Dead, Andrew Lincoln plays a repressed stay-at-home dad who moves his family from London to the rural Scottish town of Coldwater on the heels of a violent incident on a playground. John (Lincoln) and his wife (Indira Varma) are quickly befriended by their new neighbors, Tommy (Ewan Bremner) and Rebecca (Eve Myles). But as John and Tommy grow closer, it soon becomes clear that beneath Tommy’s charm something sinister lurks. Chilling and darkly funny. —Paulina Prosnitz
