Trivia & behind the scenes

Origins

The series is based on the 2000 crime novel Missing by Swedish author Karin Alvtegen.

Origins

Missing reunited the BAFTA award-winning duo behind BBC2 crime drama The Cops, writer Jimmy Gardner and executive producer Eric Coulter.

Filming

Although broadcast in Britain in 2008, the series was actually filmed back in 2004, meaning it sat unaired for years before reaching UK screens.

Reception

Missing was originally commissioned by ITV as two 90-minute episodes, but by the time it was delivered, ITV had switched its primetime drama slots to 60 minutes, leading the network to decide the show no longer fit its schedule and to shelve it.

Reception

STV eventually used its regional opt-out facility to broadcast Missing on 2 and 9 November 2008, nearly four years after filming, airing it in place of Sharpe's Peril which was being shown on the main ITV network.

Reception

The show actually premiered to audiences in the United States in August 2006, two years before its native UK broadcast, and was distributed there by Koch, including an exclusive Region 1 DVD release on 5 September 2006.

Reception

Missing was later repeated on STV in September 2014, split into three 60-minute parts instead of the original two 90-minute episodes.

Reception

The series eventually received its official UK premiere in its original two-part, 90-minutes-per-episode format on the channel UKTV Drama.
