I think they look like a very talented cast and crew. I'm looking forward to it. Also on IMDB it has the air date listed as November 2008. I wasn't sure if that was right.
ReplyDeleteAgreed, and perhaps a more modern gritty feels as proven by the brilliant 'Fucking Amal' and 'Lilja 4-ever'.
ReplyDeleteI've only see 'Fucking Amal', which was excellent. But i've heard good things about 'Lilja 4-ever'.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry i made a mistake. I've seen Lilja 4-ever, but i haven't seen Fucking Amal.
ReplyDeleteNovember? I wish, although the production is not listed in the ITV press release for this season's programmes, and it's supposed to be one of the flagships.
ReplyDeleteIt is a promising background, that's for sure.
