Maproom’s base maps make a subtle appearance as set dressing in The Capture, the BBC drama that lives and breathes surveillance, AI, and the manipulation of reality. Set against a world where images can be fabricated and truth is constantly in question, the inclusion of maps in scenes with banks of surveillance screens adds an essential layer of authenticity – ironically grounding a story built on deception. It’s a quiet reminder that even the most reliable-looking data, whether maps or footage, can play a role in narratives that blur the line between what’s real and what’s constructed.
