Starring Line of Duty actor Adrian Dunbar, find out here if the series is based on a true story.

Is Ridley a true story?

Ridley is not based on a true story.

But it is loosely inspired by a real-life phenomenon of retired detectives returning to police work as consultants.

The official ITV synopsis explains that “when a local farmer is found dead, Ridley is called on by his ex-colleague and newly promoted DI Carol Farman to assist on a missing persons case that remains unsolved after 13 years.

"Ridley always suspected the investigation was flawed, and that the wrong man was tried for Hannah’s Lindsay’s abduction. As they delve deeper, they uncover another body, and a shocking secret.”

Who wrote and directed Ridley?

The ITV series was co-created by Paul Matthew Thompson and Jonathan Fisher.

Matthews is one of the lead writers of Vera, while Fisher is a producer on Blood, Hollington Drive, and Penance.
