Who says Brits don’t make good TV these days?
Actually, that’s not entirely fair. The video above isn’t a TV series. Yet.
The sizzle reel feels a bit like a hybrid of Firefly and Hustle/Ocean’s Eleven, with a very British sensibility. There are certainly overtones of 2000 AD and Doctor Who in there as well.
Those nods to British comics aren’t too surprising. Not only is Atherton a huge Judge Dredd fan, but he originally intended Slingers to be a comic. Fortunately for us, he is now working with production company Sleepy Dog and director Steve Baron to create a fully fledged TV series.
The aim is to film a pilot episode next year, and then create 20 more episodes to complete the first season. It’s not clear yet whether the series will be picked up by a European network, or an American one. Whoever it is, they would appear to have a sure-fire hit on their hands.
