ITV has announced that filming has started on The Hunt for Raoul Moat, a true crime drama about the 2010 manhunt for the former Newcastle doorman who shot his ex-girlfriend Samantha Stobbart, her new partner Christopher Brown and police officer David Rathband, all within 24 hours.<\/p>\n

Brown was killed while Rathband was permanently blinded, and Moat evaded the police for over a week.<\/p>\n

The drama is set to star The A Word\u2019s Lee Ingleby (pictured above) as Neil Adamson, a senior Northumbria Police Officer leading the charge to find Moat, as the series focuses on the victims, police officers and a local journalist who sought to report the real story amidst a landscape of sensationalist reporting and social media provocation.<\/p>\n

Joining the cast alongside Ingleby are Sonya Cassidy (The Last Kingdom) as local journalist Diane Barnwell, Vineeta Rishi (Vera) as Nisha Roberts, Sally Messham (Doc Martin) as Samantha Stobbart, Matt Stokoe (Bodyguard) as Raoul Moat and Josef Davis (Chernobyl) as Christopher Brown.<\/p>\n

The series will be written by novelist and screenwriter Kevin Sampson, whose drama Anne recently aired on ITV<\/a>, and will be produced by World Productions in association with ITV Studios.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sampson said: \u201cThe hunt for Raoul Moat gripped me from the start, as it was the first such case to be covered \u2018live\u2019 by the new 24-hour news channels in the UK. Even then, it interested me that Moat was being portrayed by some as a \u2018legend\u2019 in spite of the brutality of his crimes.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn 2022, violence against women remains rife and is all too often accompanied by a victim-blaming agenda. I hope this drama will go some way to condemning this narrative.\u201d<\/p>\n

ITV\u2019s Head of Drama Polly Hill said: \u201cThe Hunt for Raoul Moat shines a light on the human tragedies behind the true story of Britain\u2019s biggest ever manhunt to apprehend a violent killer. Following on from his success with\u00a0Anne earlier this year, Kevin Sampson\u2019s scripts are once again insightful and compelling.\u201d<\/p>\n
