Alibi Sets UK Premiere Date For The Gulf Season 2

Alibi has set a UK premiere date for the second series of The Gulf, with the New Zealand crime drama returning on Wednesday December 15th at 9pm.

Often described as New Zealand’s answer to Scandinavian noir, the series is set on Waiheke Island in the Hauraki Gulf, off Auckland. It follows Detective Senior Sergeant Jess Savage, played by Kate Elliott, who investigates crimes across the island while still trying to piece together the car crash that killed her husband. Ido Drent co-stars as her colleague DS Justin Harding.

Created by Paula Boock and Donna Malane, the series first aired on Alibi in the UK in early 2020. The second run picks up with Savage being threatened by a blackmailer who knows what she has done, as a fresh set of cases unfolds around the island community.

The Gulf has also been picked up internationally by Netflix and Amazon Prime Video.
