Outlander: Season 7 part 2 teaser for STARZ drama Channel 5 has finally shared a first look at its brand new crime drama, Ellis, which stars Sharon D Clarke in the lead detective role. The show will also feature actors from huge shows, including Starz’s Outlander and BBC One’s Doctor Who . The first look at the new series includes a number of new on-set images, as well as two snaps of the show’s leading star Clarke.

The pictures show the actress in what seems to be a police station corridor, staring out of the window. We also get our first look at Outlander actor Andrew Gower, who plays DS Harper in the drama. In the snaps, Gower can be seen leaning down over a dead body in the middle of a crime scene.

The images might not give too much away but, according to the Radio Times , the new show should bring Channel 5 to the grittier side of the detective genre. The official synopsis for Ellis describes her as "a tenacious cop who is parachuted into failing investigations". It continues: "Each two-hour episode sees Ellis – accompanied by her right-hand man DS Harper – arrive at a different police station, where she will have to win over the local detectives and immerse herself in the cases she has come to solve.
