Plot Synopsis

Loosely based on actor-writer Idris Elba's childhood, IN THE LONG RUN is a comedy series that examines the lives of the Easmon family living in London in 1985, led by factory worker Walter whose home and family -- wife Agnes and son Kobna -- are turned upside down when his party-loving, responsibility-challenged DJ younger brother, Valentine, arrives from Sierra Leone. Walter sets up an interview for Valentine at the factory; meanwhile, Walter's friend, Bagpipes' wedding anniversary approaches. IN THE LONG RUN had its U.S. premiere on Friday, November 1, 2019 from 10-10:50pm ET/PT, as Starz debuted back-to-back episodes.

IN THE LONG RUN's second season had its U.S. debut on Friday, December 6, 2019 from 10-10:50pm ET/PT on Starz. The new season opens with Valentine moving out -- but bachelor life isn't how he expected. Then, Bagpipes makes a bold bid to run Leon out of town; Agnes and Kobna step in when Valentine gets ripped off by a garage owner.

Season 3 of IN THE LONG RUN had its U.S. premiere on Sunday, January 3, 2021 at 9:10pm ET/PT on Starz. In the season opener, a big change is coming for Walter as his mother comes to London; a troubling event reminds Bagpipes of the frangibility of life.
