Edmund Butt is currently scoring the upcoming BBC original series From Darkness. The psychological crime drama is created by Katie Baxendale (Sugar Rush) and stars Anne Marie-Duff as Claire Church, a former police officer who left the Greater Manchester Police (GMP) in the mid-90s after the impact of violence became too overwhelming for her to continue. Johnny Harris, Richard Rankin, Luke Newberry, Caroline Lee Johnson, Lyndsey Marshall, Adrian Rawlings, Ben Batt and Leanne Best are co-starring. Dominic Leclerc (Call The Midwife, The Syndicate) is directing all four episodes of the show’s first season. Hilary Martin and Oliver Kent are producing the project. Butt has previously composed the music for BBC’s In the Flesh for the producers. From Darkness is expected to premiere later this year on BBC.
