  • KILLING BONO a Nick Hamm Film
    KILLING BONO A Nick Hamm Film Production Notes Due for Release in UK: 1st April 2011 Running Time: 114 mins Killing Bono | Production Notes Press Quotes: Short Synopsis: KILLING BONO is a rock n’ roll comedy about two Irish brothers struggling to forge their path through the 1980’s music scene… whilst the meteoric rise to fame of their old school pals U2 only serves to cast them deeper into the shadows. Long Synopsis: Neil McCormick (Ben Barnes) always knew he’d be famous. A young Irish songwriter and budding genius, nothing less than a life of rock n’ roll stardom will do. But there’s only room for one singer in school band The Hype and his friend Paul’s already bagged the job. So Neil forms his own band with his brother Ivan (Robert Sheehan), determined to leave The Hype in his wake. There’s only one problem: The Hype have changed their name. To ‘U2’. And Paul (Martin McCann) has turned into ‘Bono’. Naturally there’s only one option for Neil: become bigger than U2. The brothers head to London in their quest for fame, but they are blighted by the injustices of the music industry, and their every action is dwarfed by the soaring success of their old school rivals. Then, just as they land some success of their own, Ivan discovers the shocking truth behind Neil’s rivalry with U2, and it threatens to destroy everything. As his rock n’ roll dream crashes and burns, Neil feels like his failure is directly linked to Bono’s success.

  • Winter Highlights 2004
    DRAMA WINTER HIGHLIGHTS 2004 ENGLAND EXPECTS Steven Mackintosh stars in a hard-hitting drama about a man who is drawn back to his far right past as his life spirals out of control. Mackintosh plays Ray, a responsible family man, fiercely protective of his daughter, Nikki. But he is also a control freak and, when things start to go wrong – first at work and then at home – he begins to lose his grip on reality. As his behaviour becomes increasingly erratic and he looks for someone other than himself to blame, he turns towards people from his past – people who are prepared to exploit him for their own ends. England Expects is produced by award-winning programme-maker Ruth Caleb. Her BBC ONE credits include Dominic Savage's Out Of Control, which won the Michael Powell Award for Best British Film at the Edinburgh International Film Festival, and Antonia Bird's Care, which won the Prix Italia for Best Drama. IN DENIAL OF MURDER Stephen Tompkinson plays campaigning local journalist Don Hale in a factually based drama which explores the controversial case of Stephen Downing and the murder in 1973 of Wendy Sewell (played by Caroline Catz) in Bakewell cemetery in the Peak District. Don Hale’s determination to prove Downing’s innocence captured the imagination of the press and public alike. Based on extensive research and written by Neil McKay, In Denial Of Murder tells the moving and tragic story behind the headlines, combining the story of Hale’s campaign with an account of the life of the murder victim.
