About the Show

The award-winning TV series Guilt is a darkly comic Scottish thriller hailed by The Guardian (UK) as “Scotland’s answer to Fargo.” The show follows polar opposite brothers: unscrupulous lawyer Max McCall (Mark Bonnar, World on Fire, Unforgotten, Shetland, Catastrophe) and his softer-hearted brother Jake (Jamie Sives, Annika, Chernobyl) as they get (mostly) into and out of trouble.

Guilt’s cast also includes Emun Elliott (Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Game of Thrones) who plays long-suffering private eye Kenny Burns, Phyllis Logan (Downton Abbey’s Mrs. Hughes) is Maggie Lynch, a formidable presence in Edinburgh’s crime underworld, and Sara Vickers (Endeavour’s Joan Thursday), is Erin Lynch, the daughter trying to distance herself from the family business.
