One to Watch: TAKEN DOWN

Co-written by author Jo Spain and Stuart Carolan, and produced by the team behind LOVE/HATE, TAKEN DOWN hits Irish TV screens later this autumn. To wit:

Taken Down is a new 6 x 1 hour crime drama series that investigates the violent death of a young Nigerian migrant found abandoned close to a Direct Provision Centre, where refugees wait for political asylum. The investigation brings us into a twilight world of the new Ireland where slum landlords and criminals prey on the vulnerable.
  The cast includes Aissa Maiga (Anything for Alice, Bianco e Nero), Brian Gleeson (Resistance, Phantom Thread), Lynn Rafferty (Love/Hate), Orla Fitzgerald (The Young Offenders) Jimmy Smallhorne (Love/Hate, Clean Break), Barry Ward (End of The Fucking World, The Fall), Enoch Frost (Skyfall, The Desert) and Slimane Dazi (A Prophet, Rengaine).
