The Interceptor is a British drama television serial that was first broadcast on BBC One from 10 June until 29 July 2015. The eight-part series was written by Tony Saint and made by BBC Drama Productions.[1][2] The series was cancelled after one series. According to O.T. Fagbenle who stars as agent Ash, the show was a victim of management change at the BBC.[3]
The series is about a new law enforcement team tasked with hunting down some of Britain's most wanted criminals.[4] The series is inspired by the book of the same name which details the career of former customs agent Cameron Addicott, co-written by Kris Hollington.[5][6][7]
