ITV commissions four part adaptation of Graham Norton’s bestselling novel Holding, starring Conleth Hill, directed by Kathy Burke, written by Dominic Treadwell-Collins and Karen Cogan and produced by Happy Prince and Port Pictures
ITV has commissioned a four part adaptation based upon Graham Norton’s funny and tenderly perceptive debut novel, Holding, to be filmed on location in Ireland.
Holding will be directed by Kathy Burke, written by Dominic Treadwell-Collins and Karen Cogan and produced by Happy Prince, part of ITV Studios, and Martina Niland for Port Pictures, in association with Screen Ireland.
Graham Norton’s debut novel Holding is being adapted for the small screen.
Game Of Thrones star Conleth Hill, known for playing the scheming Lord Varys, will star in the darkly comic four-part series set in a remote village in West Cork, Ireland.
He will play local police officer Sergeant PJ Collins, a gentle but towering man who hides from residents and fills his days with comfort food and half-hearted police work.
