Plot Synopsis

When a crew member is found dead on board the Trident nuclear submarine HMS Vigil, police in Scotland are called in to investigate. But the UK's nuclear deterrent must remain unbroken, so the submarine stays on patrol and Detective Chief Inspector Amy Silva goes aboard to begin an investigation. Although the death was written off as an accidental overdose, Amy suspects foul play. But when the crew close ranks in the face of Amy's questioning a new threat overshadows her inquiry. VIGIL made its U.S. debut on Thursday, December 23, 2021, as Peacock released all six episodes.
