What is Stay Close about?
In the series, James Nesbitt plays detective Michael Broome, who has been obsessed with an unsolved murder case for 20 years.
However, 17 years after the case was deemed as unsolvable, a new body part is found in town, which Broome believes is connected.
He then restarts the investigation, and meets other local residents who could be connected to the case.
One of these is Harry Sutton (played by Eddie Izzard), who is a legal aid specialising in vulnerable cases.
Speaking about working with Eddie Izzard, James Nesbitt previously told Netflix: "I’ve known Eddie for a bit but we’d never got to work together.
"We really hit it off. I had a really great time with her. She made me laugh a lot but was also very professional and really detailed.
"I just think the casting has been really quite smart on this show. That’s something I won’t forget, working with Eddie. She was extremely funny."
