Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Based on T.M. Logan's novel, though the Cornish fishing village setting was added for the adaptation—the book is set in suburban England.
The series deliberately mirrors 'The Wicker Man' in its treatment of insular coastal communities and outsiders, though Ed is the invader of his own family.
