Myanna Buring, 3 Others Cast In BBC Two Drama ‘Banished’
Downton Abbey and Ripper Street’s Myanna Buring, along with Russell Tovey (Being Human), Julian Rhind-Tutt (The Hour) and David Wenham (Top Of The Lake) have joined the cast of BBC Two Australia-set series Banished. The Jimmy McGovern-created show charts the lives, loves, relationships and battle for survival of a group of convicts, the soldiers who guard them and the men who govern them in the early days of the penal colony established by Britain in the 18th century. Shooting starts next month in Sydney for broadcast in 2015. RSJ Films and See-Saw Films are co-producing the seven-part drama. Banished is written by McGovern, and Shaun Duggan (Accused) has written one episode. Sita Williams is producer and also executive produces alongside Roxy Spencer and McGovern. Emile Sherman, Iain Canning, and Jamie Laurenson are executive producers for See-Saw; Brett Popplewell and Simon Hailey are co-producers.o
