Rejoyce, fellow history lovers and afiçionados of the ever lovely Andrew Buchan - I come bearing good news for you!

ANDREW BUCHAN TO STAR IN ITV’S FOUR PART MINI SERIES “THE GREAT FIRE OF LONDON”

Inspired by the real events of 1666 when nearly half of London was destroyed in less than a week, the drama is written by Tom Bradby, political editor of ITN and author of Shadow Dancer. The story unfolds over four consecutive days as the fire takes hold of the city and the people desperately attempt to overcome the flames amid a threat to the monarchy. Buchan will play humble baker Thomas Farriner in whose shop the fire began on September 2, 1666.

Don’t mess with Mrs. O’Leary’s cow and Thomas Farriner’s artisan bread!



Any excuse for a picture of Andrew Buchan at his prettiest!
And it’s delicious news for us Royal Navy buffs: Daniel Mays will play Samuel Pepys - yes, that Samuel Pepys, Mr. Il faut que je leave it least it bring me to alcun major inconvenience, that one! I love the casting for that role!
