Vicky McClure stars in the four-part drama as grieving mother Stella Tomlinson, whose teenage daughter is found dead in her home with a hooded figure standing over her. The drama explores her search for clarity and resolution as she attempts to deal with her momentous loss.

The Line of Duty actress previously teased that Without Sin is "very different" to other roles she has taken on.

"It's very different to the action-packed shows that I've been doing," she told RadioTimes.com ahead of the show's premiere on ITVX in 2022. "It was a nice change.

"It was much more emotive in the way that it was at a much slower pace – and the drama was elsewhere. It was very different but that's what I like to do, mix it up."

But who else stars in the ITV series alongside McClure? Read on for everything you need to know about the cast of Without Sin.
