The Mad Men star plays a hotshot Hollywood producer going back to her Irish roots – and beyond – in Chris O’Dowd’s fun new show.
The six-parter follows Wendy (Christina Hendricks of Mad Men fame), a hotshot Hollywood producer who returns to her rural home village, the fictional Drumbán, to make a movie.
But when she reunites with the local doctor, Séamus (Paddy Considine), we see flashbacks to what happened more than two decades ago on millennium eve, when a light in the sky caused birds to drop dead around them in the woods.
Chris O’Dowd (The IT Crowd, Bridesmaids) returns to his roots with this new creation: an offbeat Irish comedy drama with a strange sci-fi twist.
Also hoping to find the perfect pooch are Dean – who is recovering from a stroke – and Diane, who brings her best friend of 40 years, Tracey, along for the fun.
