Former HOLBY CITY actor Hugh Quarshie is to take the lead in an ITV three-part sequel about Stephen Lawrence.
Stalwart Hugh, who left our screens at the end of last year having played surgeon Ric Griffin for 19 years, will star in the drama alongside Sharlene Whyte and Steve Coogan.
Hugh Quarshie reprises his performance of Neville Lawrence (Stephen’s father) from the original award-winning drama.
The drama tells the story of the ongoing struggle by Doreen and Neville Lawrence to achieve justice and how a detective, DCI Clive Driscoll – working closely with the Lawrences – puts together an investigation that finally – more than 18 years after his death – secures the convictions of two of the gang who committed the murder of Stephen.
