This is the Japanese description for Cooper and Fry Season 1, which airs in Japan next month (apparently in one massive six-hour drama binge!). *The term 'Psychological Detective Fitz' is a reference to the series 'Cracker', in which Lorcan Cranitch played DS Jimmy Beck. 😀

Season 1 of Cooper and Fry is now available in the USA and Canada via BritBox - but so far only for those with early access through a Premier subscription! britbox.com/us/show/Cooper_a…

Really looking forward to taking part in this! A brand new book festival coming to Nottingham on Saturday 5th September: shorturl.at/7dDBJea

Great to see everyone at the new Staveley Library last night. What a lovely library it is too! The event was sold out, so some people couldn't get tickets. But don't worry! I'll be back to do an event at Chesterfield Library on Thursday 1st October. Keep an eye out for details.🙂

The production company behind the Cooper and Fry TV series, Clapperboard Studios, have been nominated for Production Company of the Year in the Edinburgh TV Awards next month. Good luck, guys!
