What is ITV series Payback about?

Last night saw the new, six-part drama, Payback, launch on ITV1. The drama has been created by Jed Mercurio, who is also the brains behind the likes of Line of Duty, Bodyguard, and Trigger Point.

The new drama follows Morven Christie‘s character Lexie Noble, who seems to have an idyllic life in the suburbs of Edinburgh.

Well, until her husband dies, that is. Turns out that her husband wasn’t as squeaky clean as it first seemed.

But who killed him and why? That’s what Lexie has to find out…
