TX were chosen to shoot a new five part BBC One drama, 32 Brinkburn Street, due to be broadcast in March 2011.
This new drama, filmed in Manchester is set in a Georgian terraced and follows the lives of two generations of the same family, one in 1931 and one in 2011. It explores the changing nature of society and the family and was commissioned as part of a special week of programmes for Census Week.
Liam Keelan, Controller of BBC Daytime said, “Over the next year we’re going to be bringing our daytime viewers almost 100 more hours of current affairs, social issues and consumer affairs, as well as nearly doubling factual and drama events from three or four to at least six each year in the same vein as the award-winning Land Girls.”
As preferred suppliers to the BBC, and having filmed several award-winning BBC dramas, including Land Girls, it was not surprising that TX were chosen as the company to capture this new production.
