Cool news from some filming friends

Our friends and colleagues at Tandem Communications in Germany have just announced that they're ready to go to principal photography on Ken Follett's World Without End.

Tandem (predictably) did a spectacular job on Pillars of the Earth: their commitment to long-form event-TV storytelling (and their success at it) would certainly have been one of the factors assisting other newer long-form productions like Game of Thrones in getting off the ground.

Can't wait to see how the sequel unfolds! In particular, John Pielmeier's scripts are always a pleasure to read... looking forward to seeing how he handles the adaptation. Now let's all sit back and watch Rola invade Hungary again... :)

(Disclosure: yes, of course these are the people for whom I wrote The Lost Future. (The SyFy page is here.) On which I had a great time, and besides, who wouldn't be proud to be associated with anything that gets Sean Bean running around the landscape in leather?...)
