A new TV drama starring Pontypool-born actor Luke Evans and Bafta award-winning actress Joanna Scanlan has started filming in Wales.
The Party, based on a novel by Elizabeth Day, is a five-part series focusing on a journalist called Martin Gilmour, played by Evans, shaped by his lifelong friendship with wealthy politician Ben Fitzmaurice, played by Tom Cullen.
The drama will move between Ben’s lavish birthday party and a police investigation that follows, with flashbacks to the pair’s party days.
Evans said the drama is a “gripping exploration of loyalty, class, and the truths we hide, and I can’t wait for audiences to experience it”.
