Take a look inside the world of the news in the 1950s, where sin and scandal is as rampant behind as the scenes as what is being broadcast on the air. The underrated British Mad Men-esque British drama THE HOUR is letting audiences take a look at its new hour and new season with an exclusive digital press book, where you can meet the characters, see trailers, and gear up for what’s next on the fresh series . Check it out here!
From Emmy®-nominated writer and creator Abi Morgan (THE IRON LADY, SHAME), the sequel to BBC AMERICA’s Golden Globe®-nominated miniseries, THE HOUR, sees the return of the highly competitive, sharp-witted and passionate news trio of Freddie (Ben Whishaw, SKYFALL, CLOUD ATLAS), Bel (Romola Garai, THE CRIMSON PETAL AND THE WHITE) and Hector (Dominic West, THE WIRE) – still striving to broadcast stories they believe in. Now joined by the new eccentric Head of News, Randall Brown (Peter Capaldi, THE THICK OF IT), the sequel – set in late 1957 – will see the personal meet the professional as the characters become deeply embroiled in cover-ups, corruption, love affairs, sexual intrigues and the resurgence of Mosley’s fascism. Welcome to the end of the ‘50s…
THE HOUR returns to BBC AMERICA on Wednesday, November 28, at 9:00 pm ET/PT.
