A new BBC One prison drama from acclaimed writer Jimmy McGovern will see Game of Thrones star Sean Bean reunite with Line of Duty‘s Stephen Graham.The pair previously appeared alongside each other in an episode of McGovern’s anthology series The Accused back in 2012 and will share the spotlight once again in three-part series Time.The drama will follow life in the modern British penal system as seen from the perspective of two very different men – a teacher who killed an innocent man in an accident (Bean) and a caring and honest prison officer (Graham).It is described as “visceral”, “emotional”, and “thrilling” by the BBC, which further calls it a “story of guilt and forgiveness, punishment and penitence and the impact that prison has on all those who pass through it”. The series will be directed by Lewis Arnold, whose previous credits include episodes of Humans and Broadchurch, and filming is expected to begin in Liverpool this Autumn.
