Ben Whishaw Post: New Criminal Justice/Brideshead Revisited Pix
Ben Whishaw doing what he does best: being a sketchy creepster and sexy at the same time.
The five-part drama, called "Criminal Justice" and due to be shown on BBC1, features Whishaw, star of the recent film (lulz) Perfume, as Ben Coulter, who wakes to find that a woman he has just slept with has been stabbed to death.
Whishaw's character is unable to remember what happened and the drama follows his life in prison and his encounters with the criminal justice system.
His co-stars include Pete Postlethwaite as a hardened criminal called Hooch and Bill Paterson as the policeman investigating the murder.
"Rome" actress Lindsay Duncan plays Ben's defence barrister in the drama, which has been commissioned by the BBC Fiction controller, Jane Tranter, and will be shown in the summer.
Kate Harwood, the BBC head of series and serials, said: "This is not a prison, legal or police drama. Peter Moffat has created something beyond these labels~.
On second thought never mind.
~~As an added bonus~~ - Ben Whishaw's sexy ass (...in a slightly disturbing scene... : / )
