Chris Carey, Executive Producer and Managing Director, Dancing Ledge Productions, said: “We are so excited that BAFTA nominated Jasmine Jobson - one of the most brilliant acting talents to emerge in the last few years – is our lead in Platform 7. Chris Carey, Executive Producer and Managing Director, Dancing Ledge Productions, added: “We are so excited that BAFTA nominated Jasmine Jobson – one of the most brilliant acting talents to emerge in the last few years – is our lead in Platform 7. In spite of its flaws Platform Seven is a lot more thoughtful than one might expect from its murder mystery premise. Lisa is our "spirit guide" throughout this book. Through her we eavesdrop on conversations and even the thoughts of various characters, especially a young man called Caleb on whom she becomes fixated. Gradually, we learn more about Lisa, her former life and the reason she is trapped in Peterborough Railway Station. As she makes desperate attempts to communicate with the living, there's a dramatic change in her circumstances. This is a dark, unsettling read in places but also an uplifting, almost spiritual tale which will ultimately reward the reader.

As Evans’s ghost can now see past and future, her partner’s former girlfriend, and also Shelley, the single mother with whom Matty will have another child, perhaps a story as well told as hers can open the eyes of the reader to patterns of behaviour that may be entirely plausible but can destroy and kill. Jasmine will be joined by Toby Regbo as Matt ( Chivalry, A Discovery of Witches), Yaamin Chowdhury ( The Lazarus Project, The Essex Serpent) as Akash and Phil Davis as Edward ( Trying, Viewpoint). ITV Head of Drama Polly Hill on Platform 7

Powerhouse screenwriter Paula Milne’s brilliant scripts, based on Louise Doughty’s best-selling novel, have also attracted a stunning supporting cast alongside Jasmine; Toby Regbo, Yaamin Chowdhury, Reece Ritchie and the incomparable Phil Davis also star and this combination, along with our superb creative team behind the camera, promise to deliver a properly compelling story that will delight and surprise audiences on ITVX later this year.” Darren is feeling overwhelmed by the outcomes that he needs to achieve, so he’s identified clear learning objectives with his practice supervisor. Darren focused on person-centred care, knowing that each person reacts differently to being in hospital and has different personal concerns. He also knows that their understanding and responses to care is different and that he needs to provide cognitive, behavioural, and mental health care as well as the physical care required. He also needed to understand the cause of Annie’s confusion. Williams’s ninth novel, This is Happiness is set in the fictional village of Faha, in west Clare, Ireland. The narrator, Noel, now a 78-year-old man, recounts the experiences of his youth in the late 1950s, when a young Noel has withdrawn from the seminary and been sent to stay with his grandparents. Meanwhile, electricity is finally arriving in the village. This is a story of faith, youth, and first love, but also a careful portrayal of the village itself, and the daily lives of the parishioners who live in it, in a world on the cusp of change. We’re thrilled to be adapting Louise Doughty’s celebrated novel ‘Platform 7’ for television. The story weaves together themes of love and control in a truly original way. Part revenge story, part love story, part murder mystery this nail-biting drama forces us to consider whether we can truly know the people closest to us. With Paula Milne adapting and Sarah Walker directing, this is going to offer something truly unique.”

When it does air, the four-parter will be an ITVX premiere, exclusive to ITV’s new free streaming service, many months ahead of linear transmission on ITV1 main channel. Is there a significance in a train station — specifically Peterborough Station — being used as the location of the novel? ITV’s Head of Drama Polly Hill said: “I’m thrilled to be working with Dancing Ledge Productions on the haunting thriller, Platform 7, an adaptation of Louise Doughty’s brilliant novel. It’s edgy, fresh and engaging and is unlike anything we’ve commissioned before, as ITVX gives us the scope to break new ground with drama. That scene lasted way longer than it should have and it didn't really serve any purpose other than a weak reassertion that ghost-Lisa has few memories of her life.I wouldn't say this is really a thriller, maybe more a mystery but the mystery isn't that good nor is there any big twist at the end. It is more of a character study. What is the point where a human being stops being a human being and becomes a thing? Most people think it happens with death but Dalmar knows it can happen a long time before then if it needs to, so that other people can bear what they are seeing. ” Supernatural elements combine with contemporary realism in this chilling drama.” Platform 7 release date Jasmine Jobson said: “I’m super excited to be taking the lead in this amazing psychological thriller, based on Louise Doughty’s phenomenal best-selling novel. I’m also thrilled that I get to show audiences a completely different side to what I can do on screen with this character.” The series has been written by Paula Milne (Him, The Politician’s Husband, White Heat), adapted from the globally renowned bestselling novel of the same title by Louise Doughty.
