“Expect fierce new music as well as serious homage to classics of the time,” says Alice Webb, aka the CEO and co-president of Mercury Studios.Marc Robinson, who serves as co-president alongside Webb, adds: “Music is at the heart of the series, and we are thrilled to be able to creatively engage artists and help tell the story through new and original recordings.
” It’s about an era I lived through and know well and it involves characters who I feel I grew up with. It’s a love letter to Birmingham and Coventry but I hope people from all over the world will relate to it.
And Jo McClellan, BBC Drama commissioning editor, says: “Steven’s scripts are absolutely brilliant – they capture the wild energy of youth and a pivotal moment in time, all set to a fantastic soundtrack, and we can’t wait to see this incredibly talented cast bring it all to life.”is still very much in the production phase at the moment, so we imagine it will be late 2023 at the very earliest that this hits our screens via the BBC.
