Written and produced by ...JK Rowling, of Potter films inc. It's a three part mini-series. We're ten minutes into part one, and nothing yet. But, it gets going fast! Turns out a couple of richers want to turn the community center land into a "wellness retreat", which should make someone a lot of money. But the board of Pagford has a responsibility to keep the center open, helping the locals. It's all very ethereal... when the lead supporter of the council can't do it any more, they want to fill the spot with someone who will back the new wellness center. But... some of the locals who depend on the community center step in.. in various ways. The vote is approaching... who will fill the vacant spot? And who is uncovering secrets that need to be uncovered? It's pretty interesting. Sense of drama and suspense. Directed by Jonny Campbell. Had directed the remakes of Dracula and Westworld.
