Red Rock is an Irish serial crime drama series, set in the fictional seaside town of Red Rock, that first aired on Virgin Media One on January 7, 2015.[1] Focusing on the activities of the detectives of the local Garda Síochána station and townsfolk, three series of the programme were broadcast, concluding just over five years from the date of its debut, on January 8, 2020.
The series featured an ensemble cast of recognisable Irish talent, including Richard Flood, Conor Mullen, Jane McGrath and Cathy Belton, and was filmed on location in Dublin, including studios based at the old John Player Factory, as well as Howth and Dún Laoghaire.[2] The series was partly funded by the Broadcasting Authority of Ireland, from the Sound and Vision Fund.[1]
A total of 117 episodes were broadcast. Internationally, the series broadcast to viewers in the UK on BBC One daytime from 2016, and across the pond on Amazon Prime to viewers in the United States from 2017. Notably, American viewers received the broadcast of episodes towards' the end of the series run before anywhere else in the world.[3]
