Hope Street Season 1 Recap

Hope Street is set in the quaint fictional town of Port Devine, where the police force is shaken up by the arrival of DC Laila Hussein. Laila is English and sticks out like a sore thumb in the quintessentially Irish town. She’s also the town’s first Muslim police officer. Inspector Finn O’Hare seems to know why Laila chose to move to Port Devine, but he refuses to let the rest of the force know. Although she seems to be a good woman concerned with the welfare of the city, her secrets make it difficult for her colleagues to trust her, and she must slowly build a bond with them as they face crimes unusual for their small town. The show focuses on depicting the ups and downs of the police officers as they deal with day-to-day policing in and around Port Devine, with the creators and writers consulting Irish police officers in order to capture an accurate portrayal.
