Keeley Hawes joins Jerusalem
KEELEY HAWES JOINS
  'JERU- SALEM' WW2 SERIES
Although everybody's fave Momma Durrell Keeley Hawes is to play British Home Secretary in new BBC series Bodyguard with our dearest Richard Madden, it seems she will rule politics in JERUSALEM as well over at Channel 4! She has just joined their new period set World War 2 series in which Emma Appleton plays a young woman who joins British civil service in 1945 and agrees to spy on her own government for the Americans. Luke Treadaway, Matt Lauria, Brandon P. Bell and Stephen Campbell Moore also star in the WW2 drama in which Keeley Hawes will play her exacting boss at the civil service, who becomes an unlikely role model of what a woman can achieve in a man's world. This means Keeley will have a series within the same year on each of UK's three biggest channels.

   EMMA THOMPSON TO PRODUCE
'HARROW ALLEY' 17TH CENTURY HORROR SERIES AT HBO
Emma will also write the small screen adaptation
Meanwhile, another great British thespian Emma Thompson will produce a period set horror TV series based on a long lost script HARROW ALLEY over at HBO! The story is set during the black plague in the 17th century and follows an English town as it deteriorates. It revolves around the fortunes of two men, likeable but lawless rogue Ratsey and well meaning alderman Harry, who are both trying to survive the dangers of the time. The script was originally written by classic Hollywood writer Walter Newman and is often, as 'Deadline' reports, used in film classes becoming in certain way legendary.
