THE NORTH WATER EPIC DRAMA
Well, I don't think we've ever seen him in a BBC project, but now Colin Farrell will lead BBC 2's new  three part epic series THE NORTH WATER! Based on a novel by Ian McGuire, it will be set in the UK and the ice floes of the Arctic in the late 1850s, following the story of Patrick Sumner, a disgraced ex-army surgeon who signs up as ship’s doctor on a whaling expedition to the Arctic. On board he meets Henry Drax (Colin Farrell), the harpooner, a brutish killer whose amorality has been shaped to fit the harshness of his world. Hoping to escape the horrors of his past, Sumner finds himself on an ill-fated journey with a murderous psychopath. In search of redemption, his story becomes a harsh struggle for survival in the Arctic wasteland. Andrew Haigh is directing for See Saw Films.

Mackenzie Crook will play both Veran and his brother Harka
Mackenzie Crook will both play evil sorcerer Veran and his brother Harka, who is apparently even more evil. They will have an epic battle of wills that puts in jeopardy a prophecy that would save Britannia from the Romans.

  2. Sounds tragic for the ex-surgeon to find himself on a ship with a maniac.
    The only interesting thing in this series seems to be the Arctic world, especially now that we're told the glaciers are melting and will gradually swallow islands (sort of a natural Brexit:).
