Scottish actor Iain De Caestecker is new to the blog. You may know him from Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D (2013-2020) as Leo Fitz. If he’s totally new to you, you can look for him in the forthcoming BBC One miniseries The Control Room, reports Radio Times.
He’s set to portray a character named Gabe, who handles incoming emergency calls. But, the day comes when he receives a call that isn’t just alarming but disturbingly shocking.
In the first look trailer, it turns out the caller is reporting a murder but as she continues to speak, she recognizes his voice, saying, “Oh my god, Gabe, is that you?” He doesn’t know who the caller is, but it puts him on high alert.

The official synopsis helps fill in some of the blanks, reading: “His world is turned upside down when he receives a desperate life-and-death call from a distressed woman who appears to know him. With Gabe under pressure to work out who she is, he makes a decision that threatens to have devastating consequences..."
The three-part series is set to premiere on BBC One in the U.K. Fingers crossed it also heads to the U.S.
