Vigil Season 2 Peacock
Vigil is a British police procedural television drama series created by Tom Edge and produced by World Productions. The six-part first series premiered on BBC One in August 2021 and then aired on Peacock, the streaming platform owned by NBCUniversal, in the United States on 19 December 2021. It featured Suranne Jones, Rose Leslie, Shaun Evans, Paterson Joseph, Gary Lewis and Martin Compston, is set in Scotland and much of the action takes place on HMS Vigil, a fictional ballistic missile submarine of the Royal Navy. The second series replaces the nautical setting of the first series for a land based drama featuring fictional prototype drone technology and premiered in the UK in December 2023 and aired in the US on 15 February 2024 on Peacock, again features Jones, Leslie and Lewis alongside Dougray Scott and Romola Garai, and is set in Scotland and the fictional Middle Eastern nation Wudyan.
Series 1 Plot:
Detective Chief Inspector Amy Silva of Police Scotland is sent to HMS Vigil, a (fictional) nuclear-powered Vanguard-class ballistic missile submarine, to investigate a death on board, which takes place shortly after the mysterious disappearance of a Scottish fishing trawler. Her investigations, and those of her colleagues ashore, bring the police into conflict with the Royal Navy and MI5, the British Security Service.
The loss of the (fictional) trawler Mhairi Finnea in the series bears similarities to the sinking of the FV Antares by Royal Navy nuclear-powered submarine HMS Trenchant in the Firth of Clyde in 1990. Families of the Antares’s crew expressed upset at scenes of the Mhairi Finnea foundering; however, the BBC denied that the drama was inspired by or based on a specific real-life event.
Series 2 Plot:
When a (fictional) prototype Air Force combat drone is compromised and kills several soldiers during a joint demonstration in Scotland, Silva’s team are tasked with finding the perpetrator. She travels to joint Al-Shawka Air Base in the (fictional) Kingdom of Wudyan, a controversial ally in the Persian Gulf, and discovers a wider conspiracy intertwined with current regime’s collaboration with the British government and private enterprise on drone development.
