Filthy 47

Filthy 47

4 Episodes

Pulp paperback cover model Joyce and her artist friend Kay find themselves battling to foil a sinister international conspiracy in 1947 England.

Vision for the Show:
Already produced as a full-cast audio series (4 x 30 mins) employing professional actors, this project could also be adapted for TV, either live-action or as animation - a first-draft screenplay already exists. In terms of style: vintage Hitchcock goes Dieselpunk, or Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows meets The Man in The High Castle with more than a pinch of Peaky Blinders.
