BBC's Leeds-based crime drama Better began back in February and stars Andrew Buchan and Leila Farzad.
The drama centres around DCI Lou Slack who attempts to cut ties with the head of Leeds’ criminal underworld. DCI Slack hopes to bring down Col McHugh, played Andrew Buchan, who she used to be incredibly close to.
The BBC One synopsis reads: "Everyone has their own version of right and wrong. A corrupt copper and a Leeds gangster are bound together by decades of dishonesty. To break the ties, there's only one way out."

Actor Andrew, who was born in Stockport, is known for his roles in ITV's Broadchurch and The Fixer, BirminghamLive reports. More recently, he played former health secretary Matt Hancock in Sky drama This England and Andrew Parker Bowles in The Crown.
Speaking about his role in Better on the BBC Breakfast Programme, Andrew said: "It’s about morality and redemption, and two folk who both want out but don’t know how to do it. Very slowly over the course of five episodes these close allies become enemies and you see them unravel in the most horrific way."
However, Andrew isn't just known for his TV roles. A few weeks ago the news broke of rumours that Andrew had 'left' his Emmerdale star wife Amy after getting close to his co-star Leila.
A source told The Sun: 'It was a huge shock. Amy is heartbroken.' Andrew is said to have told Amy that their marriage was over before Christmas, leaving the actress devastated and their friends in a state of shock.
The source added: “For Andrew to walk away from his family was a huge shock to us all – and Amy is heartbroken. Everyone who knows them thought they were going to be together forever.
“But he's packed his bags and left with his new co-star. Whatever has gone on, it seems to have been enough for him to re-evaluate his whole life and rip up their marriage. Nobody is quite sure of the exact details, but Andrew has clearly had his head turned pretty dramatically.”
Amy reportedly became suspicious of her husband after seeing cosy social media snaps of him and co-star Leila Farzad. Sources claim that Nuttall grew concerned Buchan was cheating after he and Farzad appeared a little too close for comfort.
The star's fears were confirmed when she allegedly discovered Andrew had been staying in a hotel close to their home - while claiming to be away working on location, it is also claimed she discovered he had purchased racy lingerie in a different size to hers.
A source told The Sun: 'The penny started to drop over a period of time. He was away a lot, which wasn't unusual because of the nature of his work, but at one point Amy realised he had been staying in hotels very near to home — and wondered why."
As time moved on, there were some tell-tale signs that he had become close to Leila — just something in his mannerisms and in their social media posts together. But the final straw was the lingerie — that's what clinched it. Amy just knew instinctively that it wasn't meant for her."
