ULTRAVIOLET is a six-hour miniseries that takes place in a world where vampires have lived with humans for centuries and have gone mostly undetected. However, this changes when detective Michael Colefield (Jack Davenport) investigates the strange disappearance of his partner and discovers a troubling alternate reality where vampires seem to control a number of important aspects of society. Because of this experience, Michael is recruited by the government's vampire squad, the CIB, an elite team of agents who are trying to hunt down this society of vampires. A dark, brooding programme that plays like a mix of X-FILES and PRIME SUSPECT, ULTRAVIOLET is one of the most engrossing series to appear on the small screen in years.
