I'm A Celeb's Reverend Richard Coles gets major career boost as his first novel is set to become TV drama with Harry Potter actor


The brand-new murder mystery drama series, which is entitled Murder Before Evensong as Richard's namesake novel, will feature Harry Potter alum Matthew Lewis.

The six-part series sets the bar high with Fool Me Once's director David Moore behind it, while Rev Richard and Radford Neville are executive producers for The Lighthouse, alongside Catherine Mackin and Don Klees for Acorn TV. Paul Testar, Commissioning Editor, Drama, and also Executive Producer, said thrilled: 'We cannot wait to bring Murder Before Evensong to life, blending intrigue and wit with a truly unique central character. 'Matthew Lewis is the perfect choice to lead this adaptation of the Reverend Richard Coles' beloved novel, and with The Lighthouse team behind this series it will offer a fresh take on the murder mystery genre while celebrating the charm and secrets of village life.'
