:ITV六集新剧《德雷尔一家》根据Gerald Durrell的回忆录三部曲改编,故事发生在上世纪三十年代(1935年),Louisa Durrell(Keeley Hawes)身无分文,但她需要养活四个孩子(其中有几个已经成年)。她丈夫几年前去世了,她的一切都偏离了轨道:丈夫留下的积蓄已被花光,家庭面临严重经济压力,孩子们一个个全都不争气。为了让生活重新开始,她决定举家搬迁到希腊西北沿海的科孚岛(Corfu),但这家人仍然面临诸多挑战……因为一个女人在那个年代实在没有多少养家糊口的手段。与此同时,并非所有家人都赞成她的决定,一场家庭内战随即爆发。更糟糕的是,他们发现当时的科孚岛甚至还没有通电。和伦敦这种大都会相比,这里简直就是「原始社会」。但这里的生活费用很低,而且风景美如天堂,要想重建这个家庭,没有哪里比这里更合适了。

:BBC Two announces that shooting has begun on series two of detective comedy Vexed, starring Toby Stephens (Jane Eyre, Robin Hood, Cambridge Spies) who reprises his role as D.I. Jack Armstrong, paired with Miranda Raison (Spooks, Merlin, Married Single Other) who plays newly promoted D.I. Georgina Dixon.Vexed is being filmed in Dublin, Eire, and comprises six 60-minute episodes to air later this year. The series is created by Howard Overman (Misfits) with episodes written by Chris Bucknall, James Wood, Steve Coombes and Harry & Jack Williams.Also returning from series one are Roger Griffiths (Holby City, Chef) and Ronny Jhutti (Survivors, Ideal) with Nick Dunning (The Iron Lady, The Tudors) joining to play Georgina’s father.D.I. Jack Armstrong (Stephens) has a new partner in the shape of D.I. Georgina Dixon (Raison). Armstrong is charming, disorganised and prone to laziness so it comes as no surprise that sparks fly when he’s partnered with the ambitious and highly efficient Dixon. Jack’s best friend, café-owner and ex-cop Tony (Griffiths) and colleague Naz (Jhutti) complete the crime solving team. Episode one sees the duo tackle the murder of a cocky car salesman, but things are not quite as they seem.Chris Sussman, Executive Producer for the BBC, says: "We're very much looking forward to the return of Vexed. The second series promises to be just as much fun as the first, and with Miranda Raison joining Toby Stephens as new partner D.I. Dixon, we're hoping it's going to be all guns blazing."Jill Green, Executive Producer, Eleventh Hour Films, adds: “In a recession we need shows that make us laugh, and that’s where Vexed fits in - a perfectly distinctive ‘yin yang’ take on modern day life.”Vexed has been commissioned by Cheryl Taylor, Controller of Comedy Commissioning and Janice Hadlow, Controller of BBC Two.It is an Eleventh Hour Films production, executive producers are Chris Sussman for the BBC and Jill Green for Eleventh Hour Films. Produced by Eve Gutierrez for Eleventh Hour Films and Directed by Ian FitzGibbon (eps 1-3) and Kieron J. Walsh (eps 4-6).
