回复 :Green Wing and Free Agents star Stephen Mangan is to play the lead role in BBC4's adaptation of the late Douglas Adams Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency.Mangan will be joined by Darren Boyd as his sidekick Richard MacDuff and Cold Feet and Friends actor Helen Baxendale, as MacDuff's girlfriend Susan.Adapted by the Bafta-winning writer Howard Overman – who is also behind Misfits, Vexed and Merlin – Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency follows the exploits of Adams's chaotic character as he uses his unusual methods to solve crimes.Mangan said: "I've been a fan of Douglas Adams ever since the Hitchhiker's radio series which I used to record as a child and listen to over and over again in my bedroom. It's such a thrill to now be playing one of his brilliant characters."Dirk is a chaotic, anarchic force of nature with a totally unique take on the world. He is described as 'lazy, untidy, dismissive and unreliable'. I've absolutely no idea why they thought I'd be right for the role."The Dirk Gently books have formed the basis of a play and a BBC Radio 4 series but have never before been filmed for TV.Adams's agent, Ed Victor, said: "For all the years I represented the late, great Douglas Adams, the most substantial frustration for both of us was that we couldn't get films made either of Hitchhiker or Dirk."Douglas once said, memorably, that 'getting a film made in Hollywood was like trying to cook a steak by having a bunch of people come into the room and breathe on it'. Well, we did eventually get a film made in Hollywood of Hitchhiker and, tragically, Douglas didn't live to see it. Nor will he see this adaptation of Dirk – but it's worth bearing in mind that Douglas always thought Dirk would make a better film than Hitchhiker and I feel sure that this new TV drama with a terrific script by Howard Overman will prove his point."Shooting begins this week in Bristol on the 60-minute drama, which is being made by ITV Studios in association with the Welded Tandem Picture Company.The Dirk Gently production is to be directed by Damon Thomas – who also directed BBC4 drama The First Men in the Moon – and will air early next year.
回复 :CBS警匪题材的新剧《Flashpoint》故事的主角是一只隶属加拿大最大的城市多伦多警察的特种部队,这只部队的名字叫做战略反应小队(Strategic Response Unit),简称SRU。SRU的角色原型来自于多伦多的一只真的紧急任务反应小队(Emergency Task Force)。SRU的成员都不是一般的警察,他们有能力做一些普通警察所不能做的事情,包括:“拯救人质,打击黑帮,拆除炸弹,操作尖端武器,”他们将永远冒着生命危险去拯救别人的生命。他们往往会采用任何手段在非常短的时间内解决问题拯救生命。想成为一名SRU成员,你首先要有多年的在街头打击罪犯的经验,还要经受强烈的体能训练,以及射击枪法的训练。除此之外SRU成员还要有操作尖端武器的能力,包括:“狙击枪,蛇形摄像设备,机器人,闪光弹,夜视仪和泰瑟枪”。但是最重要的武器,还是每个人的直觉和经验,能够应付各种危机所需要的技巧。《Flashpoint》最早是由加拿大电视台CTV先行制作,后由CBS看重加入联合制作。该剧的编剧也全部由加拿大编剧协会Writers Guild of Canada(WGC)成员完成,所以也并没有受到美国WGA编剧罢工的影响。《Flashpoint》也是第一部完全由加拿大本地制作并拍摄并在美国主要电视网播出的电视剧集。该剧的主演是《美眉校探 Veronica Mars》里的侦探老爸Enrico Colantoni,饰演小队的头头Sergeant Greg Parker。其他演员还包括Hugh Dillon饰演Ed Lane,David Paetkau饰演Sam Braddock,Amy Jo Johnson(《Felicity》)饰演Jules Callahan。
