探案拍档 第二季 (麦克唐纳与多兹 第二季/McDonald Dodds)

ITV在继由领先的独立制作公司Mammoth Screen于今年初播出的长篇故事片取得成功之后，ITV又为当代侦探电视剧第二辑McDonald Dodds开了绿灯。在新剧集中，塔拉·古维娅（Tala Gouveia）（冷脚）和BAFTA获奖演员杰森·沃特金斯（Jason Watkins）（克里斯托弗·杰弗里斯（Christopher Jefferies）失落的荣誉，皇冠）再次扮演了雄心勃勃的DCI麦当劳和卑微，低调而又出色的DS Dodds的角色，在三个新的谋杀谜团中。该剧集以风景如画的巴斯为背景，与最近从伦敦大都会警察局调来的重婚的DCI麦当劳，以及谦虚谦逊的DS Dodds配对，后者在他的大部分工作生涯中一直为背景感到高兴。似乎没有什么共同之处，他们就结成了一个喧的，最终非常有效的解决犯罪的伙伴关系。由该系列的主要作家罗伯特·墨菲（Robert Murphy）创作和制作，麦当劳·多兹（McDonald Dodds）将再次在西方国家拍摄。全新的剧集将由Alex Pillai（里弗代尔的萨布丽娜的冒险冒险），Rebecca Rycroft（马洛里·塔，丹尼和米克）和Ian Aryeh（长期来看，Andy和乐队）导演。新电视剧是由ITV戏剧专员Huw Kennair Jones和电视节目负责人Polly Hill委托制作的。休将从频道的角度监督电视剧的制作。 Huw Kennair Jones评论说：“我们对第一辑《麦当劳和多德斯》的观众反应感到非常满意。这两个角色之间的距离太远了，这就是使该系列如此吸引人的原因。他们本来不应该有化学反应，但他们确实有化学反应，而且他们在合作伙伴中表现出色，这证明了Robert的剧本以及Tala和Jason使麦当劳·多德斯重获新生。”猛mm电影院（Mammoth Screen）戏剧总监Preethi Mavahalli说道：“我们很高兴罗伯特·墨菲（Robert Murphy）的聪明讲故事在今年早些时候引起了观众的欢迎。麦当劳·多德斯（McDonald Dodds）是一支由塔拉·古维娅（Tala Gouveia）和杰森·沃特金斯（Jason Watkins）精心打造的独特的调查团队。我们非常高兴ITV委托拍摄了更多电影，并期待着在巴斯重回电影。”达米安·蒂默（Damien Timmer）（奋进，Noughts +十字架，《火上世界》）和Preethi Mavahalli（麦当劳·多德斯，《 Noughts +十字架》，《世界大战》）是ITV制片公司Mammoth Screen的执行制片人，作家罗伯特·墨菲（Robert Murphy）（麦当劳·多德兹（McDonald Dodds） ，维拉，设得兰群岛，DCI银行）。新系列的制片人是莎拉·刘易斯（Noughts + Crosses，麦当劳·多德斯，维多利亚）。第一个系列可以通过流媒体平台Britbox进行查看。第一个系列的综合评分为640万，在现有观众中所占比例为26％，并与Tala Gouveia和Jason Watkins一起吸引了众多嘉宾，其中包括Robert Lindsay，Rosalie Craig，Ellie Kendrick，Susannah Fielding，Joanna Scanlan，Michele Dotrice，Freddie Fox和Hugh Dennis。 ITV Studios将在国际范围内发行该剧。

  ITV has greenlit a second series of contemporary detective drama, McDonald Dodds, following the success of the feature-length films which aired earlier this year produced by leading independent production company, Mammoth Screen. The new series sees Tala Gouveia (Cold Feet) and BAFTA award winning actor Jason Watkins (The Lost Honour Of Christopher Jefferies, The Crown) reprise their roles as the ambitious DCI McDonald and the humble, and quietly brilliant DS Dodds in three new murder mysteries. Set in picturesque Bath, the series pairs fiesty DCI McDonald, who has recently transferred from London’s Met Police, with the modest and unassuming DS Dodds, who has been happy in the background for most of his working life. Thrown together seemingly with nothing in common, they forge a rumbustious, and ultimately highly effective crime solving partnership. Created and executive produced by Robert Murphy, who is the lead writer for the series, McDonald Dodds will once again be filmed in the West Country. The brand new episodes will be directed by Alex Pillai (Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, Riverdale), Rebecca Rycroft (Malory Towers, Danny and Mick) and Ian Aryeh (In The Long Run, Andy and the Band). The new series has been commissioned by ITV’s Drama Commissioner Huw Kennair Jones and Head of Drama, Polly Hill. Huw will oversee production of the drama from the channel’s perspective. Commented Huw Kennair Jones: “We’re delighted with the audience reaction to the first series of McDonald and Dodds. The two characters couldn’t be further apart, which is what makes the series so intriguing to watch. They shouldn’t have chemistry, but they do, and they work brilliantly in partnership which is testimony to Robert’s script and Tala and Jason for bringing McDonald Dodds to life.” Commented Mammoth Screen’s Director of Drama, Preethi Mavahalli: “We are thrilled that Robert Murphy’s clever storytelling was a hit with audiences earlier this year. McDonald Dodds are a quirkily unique investigative team brought to life beautifully by Tala Gouveia and Jason Watkins. We’re really pleased ITV have commissioned more films and look forward to returning to film in Bath.” Damien Timmer (Endeavour, Noughts + Crosses, World on Fire) and Preethi Mavahalli (McDonald Dodds, Noughts + Crosses, The War of the Worlds) are the executive producers for Mammoth Screen, an ITV Studios company, alongside writer Robert Murphy (McDonald Dodds, Vera, Shetland, DCI Banks). The producer of the new series is Sarah Lewis (Noughts + Crosses, McDonald Dodds, Victoria). The first series is available to view via streaming platform Britbox. Series one launched with a consolidated rating of 6.4m and a 26% share of the available audience and boasted an impressive guest cast list alongside Tala Gouveia and Jason Watkins which included Robert Lindsay, Rosalie Craig, Ellie Kendrick, Susannah Fielding, Joanna Scanlan, Michele Dotrice, Freddie Fox and Hugh Dennis. ITV Studios will distribute the drama internationally.
