BBC/TG4 production "Scup" is returning for its second series!!! We are currently in the casting stages. Be sure to catch up on the first series if you've missed it on BBC player and TG4 player.
An eight part drama series written by award-winning screenwriter Colin Bateman (Murphy’s Law, Divorcing Jack). It is set in a struggling Irish Language newspaper owned by the amoral Diarmuid Black. His property empire has just crashed. Taking an interest in his ailing newspaper - An Nuacht– for the first time, he appoints Rob Cullen to take over as editor and set the paper on its feet.
Returning in disgrace from his career in London and a failed marriage, Cullen struggles to get the team behind him and create a new identity for the paper and the community it serves. With an all star cast including Don Wycherley (Rásaí na Gaillimhe, An Crisis, Veronica Guerin, Father Ted), Kelly Gough (Jump, Raw, An Crisis, The Clinic), Denis Conway, Donncha Crowley and Caitríona Ní Mhurchú.
This project received support from the Northern Ireland Irish Language Broadcast Fund.
