Laura Fraser & Ella Maisy Purvis Team For Cop Drama Series ‘Patience’ From Eagle Eye, PBS & Beta Film


Breaking Bad star Laura Fraser and Maisy Purvis will play star in drama series Patience from Eagle Eye Drama, PBS Distribution and Beta Film.

Fraser will play Detective Bea Metcalf, who forms an unlikely duo with Purvis’ young autistic police archivist, Patience Evans. Patience works in the criminal records department of Yorkshire Police, cataloguing and filing the evidence produced during major cases, and is a brilliant, self-taught criminologist with an instinctive eye for crime scenes and a passion for problem-solving. The series marks the latest collaboration between UK producer Eagle Eye and Germany-based producer-distributor Beta, following ITV’s Professor T, the Natascha McElhone-starrer Hotel Portofino and The Couple Next Door, which stars Sam Heughan ( Outlander, Suspect) and Eleanor Tomlinson ( The Outlaws, Poldark) and recently became Channel 4’s biggest scripted streaming launch ever.
