Tom Weston-Jones Interview on Copper

Starring Tom Weston-Jones ("Spooks"), Kyle Schmid ("Being Human", "Smallville"), and Anastasia Griffith ("Once Upon a Time", "Lipstick Jungle"), the show is set in 1860s New York City during the last gasps of the Civil War and follows tough but decent police detective Kevin Corcoran (Weston-Jones), a "copper" who returns from the war to discover that his daughter has been murdered and his wife is missing. Against a backdrop of poverty, crime and depravity, Corcoran tries to piece together what happened to his family while solving high-profile cases for the City. His investigations take him from the notorious Five Points neighbourhood to elegant but corrupt Fifth Avenue high society, exploring bitter racial tension and social struggles on the way.
