If there’s one thing to take away from this new trailer for BBC3’s In the Flesh, it’s that coming back from the dead isn’t quite as much fun as you might imagine.

In the Flesh stars Anna Karenina's Luke Newberry as Kieren, a young man who is reanimated four years after his funeral. Following a course of medication and rehab, Keiren is reclassified as a sufferer of PDS (Partially Deceased Syndrome) and sent home.

As well as struggling to re-integrate with his family, Kieren finds himself wrestling with flashbacks and having to deal with the threat of the Human Volunteer Force – a zombie-hating vigilante group ready to take action against any PDS sufferers.

The new trailer gives us our first glimpses of some of the show’s cast and demonstrates the hostility that Kieren faces from fanatical anti-undead vigilantes.

Featuring Ricky Tomlinson, Steve Cooper and Marie Critchley among its cast, In the Flesh is coming to BBC3 soon...
