What is Fear about?
Martyn (Martin Compston) and Rebecca (Anjli Mohindra) are making a fresh start in life after leaving their London home for Glasgow with their two young children.
The new home seems idyllic until their neighbour Jan (Solly McLeod) starts making unnerving comments to Rebecca.
Facing the accusations that are every parent’s worst nightmare, with the authorities refusing to step in, Martyn and Rebecca feel they have nowhere to turn to for help.

Talking to the BBC about the house, he said: “Even for us, exploring five levels of the house was fascinating and then there was a secret level above that where the servants would be, and a coach house.
The Scottish actor said he would go on school trips to Kelvingrove art gallery and look at the houses, wondering who lived in them.
