Yahoo News Doctor Who star's BBC crime drama Wolf release date confirmed
BBC One's upcoming crime drama Wolf, starring Doctor Who's Sacha Dhawan and Game of Thrones' Iwan Rheon, has been given a release date.
The show, which is based on Mo Hayder's Jack Caffery series, will be released on Monday, July 31 at 9pm on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
All episodes will be made available on iPlayer after the first episode has aired, with episodes also running in a Monday-Tuesday transmission pattern for three weeks.

Wolf stars Ukweli Roach as Jack Caffrey, a young detective who believes his neighbour murdered his 10-year-old brother in the '90s.
Dhawan and Rheon play a pair of mismatched professionals who are forced together on a job, while The Long Call's Juliet Stevenson and Line of Duty's Owen Teale portray a wealthy couple who soon find themselves trapped in a psychopath's cruel games.
The official synopsis for Wolf reads: "When the two narratives collide, it’s a thrilling, nail-biting and deeply disturbing race against time."

Wolf's recently released trailer (which you can watch above) revealed that Dhawan and Rheon's characters, Honey and Molina, terrorise the family after they initially pose as police officers — but it's not long before Caffrey gets on the case.
Wolf isn't the only BBC drama Rheon has coming up, though. He's also been cast in Men Up alongside Gavin & Stacey's Steffan Rhodri, Unforgotten's Phaldut Sharma and Gangs of London's Mark Lewis Jones.
Produced by Doctor Who's showrunner Russell T Davies, Men Up will see the actors play four of the men who underwent the Swansea 1994 clinical trial for a drug now known as Viagra.
Wolf will air on BBC One and iPlayer on July 31.
