How many episodes are in The Suspect on ITV?

The wait is almost over for The Suspect, ITV’s adaptation of Michael Robotham’s novel of the same name.

The Suspect is going to premiere on Monday, August 29, at 9pm on ITV.

This upcoming psychological drama consists of five episodes in total, with each instalment airing in the same time slot every Monday.

As long as there are no scheduling delays, then The Suspect’s grand finale will air on Monday, September 26.

But there is no need to be concerned if you happen to miss any of the five episodes.

Once an episode of The Suspect comes is shown on ITV, it will then be dropped on its streaming service ITV Hub.

So you will be able to catch up on the drama whenever suits you, with the entire boxset coming out once the series has concluded on ITV.

Unlike streamers such as Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, ITV Hub is free with subscribers only needing to register an email address to have access.

The Suspect is about Dr Joe O’Loughlin (Aidan Turner) who seems to have the perfect life.

He has a successful practice as a clinical psychologist, a loving wife and daughter and a publishing deal on the way.

Joe then gets labelled a hero after rescuing a young patient who was ready and willing to jump from the 10th floor of the hospital where he works.

It is his glowing public profile which attracts police officers DI Vincent Ruiz (Shaun Parkes) and his young partner DS Riya Devi (Anjli Mohindra) to ask for his assistance.

The body of a young woman is discovered in a shallow grave in a west London cemetery.

As the officers are assigned to the case, they try to figure out if it was suicide or murder.

With Joe still in the spotlight for his brave efforts, the police pay him a visit, eager for his expertise and help in profiling.

But as the investigation continues, it looks like Joe could be keeping some secrets himself from the officers.

Talking about taking on the leading role, actor Turner said: “I am thrilled to be taking on the complex and demanding role of Joseph O’Loughlin, a man with so much to give but so much to lose, and a hidden darker side.”

Author Michael Robotham was also happy about Turner being picked for Joe O’Loughlin, calling it “an inspired choice”.

He added: “I could not be in safer hands.”

The Suspect premieres on Monday, August 29, at 9pm on ITV.
