Jing Lusi (Heart of Stone<\/a>) and Richard Armitage (Fool Me Once<\/a>) are starring together in new ITVX thriller series Red Eye<\/a>, and we\u2019ve now got our first look at what we can expect.<\/p>\n

In newly released images, Lusi and Armitage are seen in character as DC Hana Li and Dr Matthew Nolan, with Matthew seen in cuffs and the pair of them seen in various stressful-looking situations onboard a flight.<\/p>\n

The series, which comes from production company Bad Wolf (Doctor Who<\/a>), creator Peter A Dowling (Flightplan) and also stars Lesley Sharp (Before We Die<\/a>) and Jemma Moore (Lockwood & Co<\/a>), follows Armitage\u2019s character Matthew, who is on his way back from a medical conference in Beijing \u2013 where he came frighteningly close to dying in a car crash.<\/p>\n

When he arrives back in the UK, he is immediately arrested at Heathrow Airport, and is accused of the murder of a woman who was in the car he crashed.<\/p>\n

He protests that he was driving alone, but is set to return to China to face charges.<\/p>\n
