THE HOUR Extended Trailer – Returns NOV 28 BBC AMERICA

“A lie has no legs. A scandal, now that has wings.”

THE HOUR returns to BBC America’s Dramaville *** Wednesday Nov 28 at 9/8c *** with All New Episodes in the sequel to the Golden Globe®-nominated miniseries called “The Year’s Best” by the New York Times, Entertainment Weekly, the Los Angeles Times and the San Francisco Chronicle.

“Expertly constructed; wonderfully acted.” – Los Angeles Times

“So good that it seems far too short.” – New York Times

“Not the British Mad Men… It’s better!” The Atlantic

From Emmy®-nominated writer and creator Abi Morgan (The Iron Lady, Shame), the sequel sees the return of the highly competitive, sharp-witted and passionate news trio of Freddie (BEN WHISHAW, Skyfall, Cloud Atlas), Bel (ROMOLA GARAI, The Crimson Petal and the White) and Hector (DOMINIC WEST, The Wire) — still striving to broadcast stories they believe in.

Now joined by the new eccentric Head of News, Randall Brown (PETER CAPALDI, The Thick of It), the sequel — set in late 1957 — will see the personal meet the professional as the characters become deeply embroiled in cover-ups, corruption, love affairs, sexual intrigues and the resurgence of Mosley’s fascism. Welcome to the end of the ’50s…

Presented by DRAMAVILLE, the destination for the most groundbreaking drama in British television. Every Wednesday night. And coming soon to Dramaville: the return of the Golden Globe®-winning miniseries LUTHER starring IDRIS ELBA; and SPIES OF WARSAW, based on New York Times Bestselling author Alan Furst’s acclaimed novel and starring DAVID TENNANT (Doctor Who).
