AMC Networks’ Acorn TV and Screen Australia have announced a new, eight-episode Australian romantic mystery series Darby and Joan from CJZ.
This bold, irreverent series stars Emmy®-nominated and Logie-winning actor Bryan Brown (Bloom) and Emmy-winning actress Greta Scacchi (War & Peace) as two lone strangers trekking on the road – a retired Australian policeman with a dog as his only company and widowed English nurse – who meet each other and embark together on an epic odyssey in the outback of northern Australia. Acorn Media International is the international distributor of the series, which will begin production in Queensland this month. Darby and Joan will world premiere exclusively on Acorn TV in Australia, the U.S., Canada, the United Kingdom, Latin America, Spain, Portugal, among others in 2022. The series will be produced by CJZ, with major production investment from Screen Australia in association
05 May 2021 : Nathan Griffin Writer John Morton Dead Still creator and writer John Morton has won the Edgar Allan Poe Award for his work on Deadpan Pictures hit Acorn TV and RTÉ comedy-drama series.
“Episode 1, Photochemistry” of Dead Still, written by John Morton was awarded the Best Television Episode Teleplay on the night with winners for the 2021 Edgars being announced virtually over zoom.
Talking to IFTN about the award, Morton said:
“It s a tremendous honour to win an Edgar and it s the first award I ve won for writing so it s been a nice feeling.”
“I genuinely hadn t expected that I might get the nod, especially in light of the competition in the category. I was just very happy to be nominated and hadn t even prepared any sort of speech so my surprise was quite genuine and my speech was subsequently quite ramshackle,” the writer recounted.
