Playground Entertainment and FilmNation’s six-part series set in Drumbán, a fictional village in rural Ireland full of misfits. Hailing from the mind of Moone Boy creator Chris O’Dowd Small Town, Big Story centres around a rural town of rattled misfits on the border of Ireland and another world, and what happens when a Hollywood production rolls into town, throwing a spotlight on a secret that’s been kept hidden since the eve of the Millennium. The series stars Paddy Considine (House of the Dragon) and Christina Hendricks (Mad Men).

O’Dowd said: “I bloody love television, and am most engrossed by stories that bring the remarkable to the everyday. I hope we’ve made a beautiful show that an audience will find funny and will keep people on the edge of their seats…and beyond.”

Small Town, Big Story is one of several original and exclusive titles coming up next on Sky in 2024.
