New ITV drama The Walk-In is based on a real life plot to murder a West Lancashire MP.
The series stars Merseyside actor Stephen Graham, who plays activist Matthew Collins, a reformed Neo-Nazi, now working as a bona fide journalist for the anti-racist organisation, Hope not Hate. Forced to flee the UK and go into hiding in the 1990’s when he became a mole from within the BNP, Collins returned to Britain to make a new life for himself.
The Walk-In focuses upon Collins and his work to stop the radicalisation of young white men before it begins. Part of the storyline features a dramatization of the plot to murder West Lancashire Labour MP Rosie Cooper.
