It was created by Dominic Treadwell - Collins as a six - part series based on the characters Kat Moon, played by Jessie Wallace, and Alfie Moon, played by Shane Richie, from the soap opera EastEnders . The series is set in the fictional Irish village of Redwater, where the residents are hiding a dark secret, and features an ensemble cast . Redwater is a co-production between the BBC and Element Pictures, with Victoria Wharton serving as producer . It was filmed on location in Dublin, County Waterford and County Wicklow between 11 April and 26 July 2016 . It started airing in Ireland on 14 May 2017 and the United Kingdom on 18 May 2017 . It has also been shown in the United States and Canada . A second series was mooted during filming of the first but as of August 2017, a second series has not been confirmed . </P> <P> Kat & Alfie: Redwater follows two characters from EastEnders, Kat Moon (Jessie Wallace) and her husband Alfie Moon (Shane Richie), as they arrive in the fictional Irish village of Redwater to "search for answers to some very big questions" and put their past behind them . Redwater is described as a "very little romantic seaside town", and "a tiny, picturesque Irish harbour village, a quiet rural idyll by the sea where the Kelly and Dolan families have lived for generations ." The then executive producer of EastEnders, also executive producer of Redwater, Dominic Treadwell - Collins, said that two events in EastEnders serve as a catalyst for the series . In EastEnders episodes broadcast in April, May and December 2015 and January 2016, Kat and Alfie win the lottery, Alfie discovers he has a mass in his brain and Kat discovers she gave birth to a son, Luke, after she passed out during the birth of her daughter Zoe Slater (Michelle Ryan); Luke was adopted by a family in Ireland without Kat knowing he existed . Kat's sister Belinda Peacock (Carli Norris) recalls a time the family (minus Kat) went to Redwater and they conclude that Luke must be there . Treadwell - Collins confirmed that "the discovery that Kat has a secret son will (...) ultimately lead to the Moons realising that the answers to so many questions lie across the sea in Ireland ." </P>
