British Thriller THE LEVEL Coming to Blu-ray and DVD Today

The gripping new British thriller THE LEVEL debuts on Blu-ray and DVD on February 21, 2017 from Acorn, an RLJ Entertainment, Inc. (NASDAQ: RLJE) brand. This Acorn TV Original Series and ITV co-production stars Karla Crome (You, Me & the Apocalypse, Under the Dome) as a detective with a secret double life that is about to unravel. The DVD and Blu-ray 2-Disc sets feature all 6 episodes plus bonus behind-the-scenes featurettes (54 min.) ($39.99 each, AcornOnline.com). The Level made its U.S. premiere in December on Acorn TV, the premier NORTH AMERICA streaming service for world-class television from Britain and beyond.

Detective Sergeant Nancy Devlin (Crome) is a good cop with a dark secret: she's loyal to drug trafficker Frank Le Saux (Philip Glenister, Life on Mars), who is like a father to her. But when their clandestine meeting turns violent, leaving Frank dead and Nancy with a bullet wound, Nancy fears her double life may soon be exposed.

Assigned to Brighton to investigate the crime, Nancy must track down Frank's killer while concealing her role - and her injury - from her enigmatic new partner, DS Gunner Martin (Noel Clarke, Star Trek Into Darkness), and her old friend, DS Kevin O'Dowd (Robert James-Collier in his first series since playing conniving butler Thomas on Downton Abbey). Can Nancy stay one step ahead of her colleagues - and the killer?

Featuring "a great cast and a twist-filled plot" (London Evening Standard, UK), The Level also stars Joe Absolom (Doc Martin), Amanda Burton (The Commander), Lindsey Coulson (EastEnders), Laura Haddock (Guardians of the Galaxy), and Gary Lewis (Outlander).
