About Acceptable Risk

Acceptable Risk is an Irish television crime drama series, broadcast on RTÉ, that first aired on 24 September 2017. Produced by Facet4 Media and Saffron Moon for RTÉ Television, Acceptable Risk stars Elaine Cassidy as Dublin-based Sarah Manning, whose husband Lee is murdered whilst on a business trip in Montreal. Filmed between Ireland and Canada, the first series, comprising six episodes, was broadcast during September and October 2017.

Internationally, the series has been distributed by DCD Rights and Acorn Media Enterprises. Following strong viewing figures for the series, which opened with viewing figures of more than 380,000, writer Ron Hutchinson has since confirmed a second series is in development.
