Babyfather
returns to 大象传媒 TWO
Bolder,
sexier and raunchier, David Harewood, Wil Johnson, Fraser James
and Don Gilet return in the highly original, contemporary drama
series Babyfather, currently in production for transmission on 大象传媒
TWO later this year.
"When
Babyfather was first shown last autumn, it took drama on television
onto a different level as the first primetime drama series with
a predominately black cast," says Jane Tranter, 大象传媒 Controller
of Drama Commissioning.
"It
was bold and original and I am delighted to announce its return
to 大象传媒 TWO for a longer run this autumn."
In
the new series, the friendship between Gus (David Harewood), Beres
(Wil Johnson), Linvall (Fraser James) and Johnny (Don Gilet) is
put to the test when new challenges threaten to tear the foursome
apart.
Beres
suffers two major setbacks; meanwhile Johnny is desperate to get
back together with Lesley (Diane Parish).
But
will Lesley forgive Johnny for his indiscretions with Pauline (Petra
Letang)?
Gus
and Chantelle (Angela Griffin) attempt to settle down to married
life and Linvall's relationship with his son, Eric (Heshima Thompson),
becomes strained when his attention is drawn elsewhere.
