How many episodes of Dark Money are there on BBC1? New drama kicks off

A chilling new drama will continue the BBC this week in the shape of Dark Money.

Kicking off last Monday on BBC1 and starring Jill Halfpenny, tells the story of sexual abuse in Hollywood, and the efforts to cover it up.

When 13-year-old Isaac Mensah is plucked from his regular life at school in London to star in a major new movie, his family is delighted.

But while he is in the US shooting the film, a powerful studio executive takes advantage of him.

The producer then attempts to buy the young boy's silence, offering his family £3m if they sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) promising to keep quiet. The rest of the series explores the impact of the decision they make.

In episode 2, as the day of the film premiere approaches, Isaac was forced to come face to face with his abuser.

And then in episode 3 Isaac spirals out of control as the family starts to fracture, and as the truth starts to come out, Jess plays a dangerous game with the press.

How many episodes of Dark Money are there?

There are 4 episodes in total, each lasting an hour.

Episode 3 will air on Monday, July 15 and the fourth and final episode on Tuesday, July 16.
