Billed as as "an emotional thriller about love and money, and the price of being able to buy whatever you want," The Nest is due to be shown on BBC One across the UK-wide network within the next few weeks.
Line of Duty star Martin Compston and Sophie Rundle, who is best known for her role in Peaky Blinders, will play devoted couple Dan and Emily, who "want for nothing" in their huge home on the outskirts of Glasgow - apart from their own family.
