NORWAY & SWEDEN: The Escape Artist Due To Air On Scandinavian Channels



The Escape Artist starring David Tennant will soon air on TV channels in Norway and Sweden. Both TV2 in Norway and TV4 in Sweden have acquired the series form distribution company Red Arrow International.

John Ranelagh, head of acquisitions at TV2 Norway, said acquiring The Escape Artist for the channel was a “no-brainer.”

The legal thriller which was written by David Wolstencroft of Spooks fame begins tonight on BBC One. David Tennant plays Will Burton, as skilled junior defence barrister who has never lost a case: hence his nickname of 'The Escape Artist'. However, when he acquits the suspect in an horrific murder trial, his seemingly perfect life starts to unravel in ways he could never have foreseen. The drama also stars Ashley Jensen, Sophie Okonedo and Toby Kebbell


Viewers in the UK and Ireland can watch the premiere of The Escape Artist on BBC One tonight at 9pm GMT
