Bringing the midlands to the masses… this is going to be good.
Created by and starring comedian Alison Spittle, ‘Nowhere Fast‘ chronicles life in the midlands of Ireland for returning millennial Angela.
Fresh from a failed media career in the big smoke, Angela is back home to lick her wounds and plan the next move.
Speaking of her new venture Alison said: “I’m proud and excited to be making a show about the midlands in all its glory. It’s a lot like Laser hair removal – something I never saw myself doing, a thing for people more glamorous and organised than myself, and to be honest I’ve no idea how it’s done. Now it’s happening, I wake up some mornings and maybe ten minutes go by before I remember “hey you’re making a TV show!”.
Producer Ailish McElmeel added: ‘I’m delighted to bring another strong female comedy to Irish audiences. Alison’s voice is truly fresh and fantastically funny.”
The series started shooting last week in North County Dublin and we’ll be seeing it in the Autumn schedule for RTE2.
