BBC America will air Law & Order: UK, the British version of the NBC series starring former Tony Award nominees Ben Daniels and Harriet Walter.

The show will premiere on Sunday, October 3 at 10:30pm, while all other episodes will be shown on Friday nights at 9pm. The series, which debuted in 2008, uses the same scripts as the U.S. version but is tweaked to reflect the British legal system. The series also stars Jamie Bamber, Bradley Walsh, and Freema Agyeman.

Daniels received a Tony nomination for the Roundabout Theatre Company’s production of Les Liaisons Dangereuses; Walter earned her Tony nomination for Mary Stuart.
