What is My Policeman about?
There's not yet been an official synopsis for the film released, but My Policeman is based on a novel of the same name so fans can expect the script to follow a similar plot.
The book is set in Brighton in 1957 and focuses on policeman Tom Burgess, who is gay but is forced to hide his sexuality due to the laws against homosexuality in that era. Tom meets schoolteacher Marion on Brighton beach and she soon falls in love with him.
However, the couple then face trouble when Tom meets museum curator Patrick Hazelwood, and he and Tom begin a love affair. Tom ends up marrying Marion due to societal standards of the time, but a messy love-triangle ensues and jealousy ends up creating friction between them, risking huge consequences in the process.

According to Daily Mail, an older version of Tom will be played by Linus Roache (A Call to Spy) while Rupert Everett will play older Patrick.
