When it comes to keeping the momentum for storytelling, writers from hit shows such as True Detective: Night Country, Irish hit dramedy Faithless and British superhero comedy Extraordinary all have different approaches for making returnable television series.
Speaking at the inaugural screenwriting festival Storyhouse in Dublin, Irish writer-actor and presenter Baz Ashmawy spoke about his debut writing project Faithless, a six-part series for Virgin Media, which follows an Irish-Egyptian dad who is presented with the life-changing responsibility of raising his three young daughters alone.
“I was more clear on the tone of it because I saw a gap in Irish shows that were either sitcoms pre watershed or crime dramas,” said Ashmawy to a packed theatre at Dublin’s Light House cinema. “I saw there was a hole for dramedy – to make someone laugh one minute and then upset them in the next scene. I’ve always found that playing...

Exclusive: Swedish filmmaker Tomas Alfredson, now best known as the director behind beautiful, taut features like Let the Right One In and Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, wrote to Swedish screen legend Ingmar Bergman sometime in the early 2000s with an idea. Bergman’s response was characteristically colorful.
“What the hell is this? What do you mean?” Bergman told Alfredson.
Alfredson had told the Persona filmmaker that he wanted to remake Faithless, the 2000 feature Bergman had written about an imaginary woman who recollects her painful experience of adultery to an aging filmmaker. The pic played in competition that year in Cannes and was directed by Bergman’s ex-wife, actress Liv Ullmann.
“This was long before everyone was producing remakes, so it was a very unusual question, especially for Bergman,” Alfredson said.
Fast forward to February 2024 and Alfredson is deep into an edit of a contemporary TV adaptation of Faithless he has...

Deicide have offered up details on their new album Banished by Sin, arriving April 26th, as well as released a new single called “Sever the Tongue.”
After teasing the album with a Christmas surprise in the form of the festive lead single “Bury the Cross…with Your Christ”, frontman Glen Benton and company have unveiled the full info on Banished by Sin, which runs 12 tracks and is adorned with an interpretation of the iconic demon medallion from the band’s 1990 debut LP.
Picking up where the band left off with their X-mas gift, “Sever the Tongue” is a decadent brand of brutality, with barrages of technical riffing and an unrelenting torrent of guttural heresy from Benton. The David Brodsky-helmed music video is gorey and equally blasphemous — tongues are indeed severed — so view it with discretion.
“I’ve been sitting in a dark corner for several years now,” Benton revealed in the album announcement.
