West Country star Daisy May Cooper has been announced in the cast of a new show which was filmed in Bristol. Rain Dogs, which has recently wrapped its Bristol shoot, will see a dysfunctional, unconventional family on the fringes of society, attempting to go straight in a crooked world.
The show, co-produced by BBC and HBO, charts an unconventional love story between a working-class single mum, her 10-year-old daughter, and a privileged gay man. The dark comedy stars Daisy May Cooper, Jack Farthing, Ronke Adekoluejo, Adrian Edmondson and Fleur Tashjian, in her debut role.
The award-winning actor and writer from This Country has recently met success with the new BBC series Am I Being Unreasonable? Cooper both co-wrote and starred in the comedy thriller, which was filmed in Bristol last year, alongside her real-life best friend Selin Hizli. It is not yet known when the show will air.
