Born identical twins, each sister is unique; Leni is the sister that is content to stay home, marry her childhood sweetheart, raise her daughter and help run the beautiful horse farm where everyone lives together rooted in their long shared history. Gina is the rebellious sister that turned her back on all that and escaped to Los Angeles where she rose to quick fame writing about a darker undertow that informed her Southern childhood.
THE BIRTH OF DANIEL F. HARRIS
CHANNEL 4 REVEALS CAST
Production has started on Channel 4's coming-of-age drama THE BIRTH OF DANIEL F. HARRIS. The eight part, half hour drama will see Lewis Gribben starring as Danny, an 18 year old whose mother was killed in
a car accident when he was a baby. Overwhelmed with grief, his dad Steve (Rory Keenan) bought a house in the middle of nowhere and locked Danny in, telling him the world outside was full of monsters waiting to take him away. Just like they took his mum. For 18 years they lived a happy existence together, listening to Benny Goodman records and watching old movies with no sad endings. And that’s how Danny grew up. It was all he knew, all he needed - him and his dad against the world. But when Danny turns eighteen, everything he’s ever known explodes in an instant. Danny is taken to live with his well meaning but stressed out aunt Sue (Lisa McGrillis) and cousin Aaron (Samuel Bottomley) who is a shy and awkward eighteen year old, desperately in need of a friend, but his very strange cousin definitely wasn’t
who he had in mind. While Aaron grew up watching YouPorn and YouTube, Danny was raised on a diet of The Lavender Hill Mob and Brief Encounter. Living with Danny is a massive eye opener for Aaron, seeing the world through his strange cousin’s eyes. And slowly, tentatively, both Danny and Aaron start to emerge from their shells together - as Danny tries to find the real monster, the one that killed his mother!
