Blood is a Channel 5[2] [3] and Virgin Media One psychological thriller, created by Sophie Petzal and starring Carolina Main and Adrian Dunbar. The first series was broadcast in November 2018 and the second series in April–May 2020.
Cat Hogan (Carolina Main) returns home to a fictional small town in the Dublin commuter belt (actually filmed in the Kilcock, Kildare)[4] following the news that her mother, who had been suffering from a long illness, had died after falling over and striking her head against a rock at the family home. Haunted by flashbacks from an incident in her childhood, she's convinced her father had something to do with her mother's death, and her family is torn by suspicion and grief. Was her mother's death an accident?
Blood was filmed in Meath, Kildare, and Dublin. The location of the family home was at the Larchill Arcadian Gardens in County Meath.[5]
On 28 March 2022, it was announced Disney+ Hotstar would produce an Indian adaptation of Blood.[6] The series, titled Masoom, is helmed by Gurmmeet Singh and is set to debut on 17 June 2022.[7]
