Eagle Eye writer Travis Wright has been commissioned to write a script for a new movie version of The Saint.
BBC Two have released two new clips for one-off drama United, based on the true story of Manchester United’s legendary “Busby Babes”, the youngest side ever to win the Football League, and the 1958 Munich Air Crash that claimed eight of their number.
Starring David Tennant (Doctor Who), BBC Two’s United is based on the true story of Manchester United’s legendary “Busby Babes”, the youngest side ever to win the Football League, and the 1958 Munich Air Crash that claimed eight of their number.
Based on the real life events pre and post the 1958 Munich air crash that saw eight of the Manchester United football team lose their lives, United is a one-off feature-length drama from BBC Two starring Doctor Who‘s David Tennant and Mission Impossible II actor Dougray Scott.
Despite some effective moments of tension, BBC One’s recent The Day of the Triffids adaptation is ultimately let down by a poor script, sloppy pacing and disjointed story-telling.
Dougray Scott, Joely Richardson, Brian Cox and Eddie Izzard star in BBC One’s new adaptation of The Day Of The Triffids this Christmas.
