Graham Norton novel to be TV comedy series

GRAHAM NORTON’S debut novel is being adapted for the small screen.

The darkly comic Holding, set in a remote village in Ireland, will be turned into a four-part series.

Conleth Hill, who plays the scheming Lord Varys in Game of Thrones, will star as local police officer Sergeant PJ Collins, a gentle but towering man who hides from residents and fills his days with comfort food.

When the body of local man Tommy Burke is discovered, he is tasked with solving the first serious crime of his career.
