NEW WAR EPICS
BBC is preparing two new epic series! One, so far untitled, will be set in the late 1780s and will focus on the deportation of unwanted British citizens, whores, criminals and orphans, to the other side of the world where they are to settle in Australia. The story will be told through the eyes of convicts. The second one comes in celebration of a century after the World War I. Titled THE GREAT WAR the series will follow two young soldiers, one German and one British. Each episode covers one of the years of the war and takes in all the major events including Gallipoli, the Battle of the Somme, Ypres and the entry of America into the conflict. The two soldiers meet in the last episode. The story looks at all aspects of the war - from the families left behind to the strategic decisions by generals that led to unimaginable bloodshed and the men fighting in the trenches! And even more war drama will be seen in World War 2 horror flick GHOSTS OF THE PACIFIC which will be recounting the incredible journey of pilot Harold Dixon (Garrett Dillahunt), bombardier Tony Pastula (Tom Felton), and radioman Gene Aldrich (Jake Abel) - virtual strangers assigned to a scouting mission on January 16, 1942. When they are forced to ditch their plane, the men are left with no food, water, or supplies; only a 4x8-foot yellow life raft to keep them afloat on a dangerous ocean.
