Sky has unveiled three first-look tease shots from Chris O\u2019Dowd\u2019s upcoming comedy-drama Small Town, Big Story, which stars Paddy Considine (House of the Dragon) and Christina Hendricks (Mad Men) in leading roles.<\/p>\n

The story takes place in the fictional Irish town of Drumb\u00e1n, which sees a Hollywood film crew descend on its unassuming streets, led by producer Wendy Patterson (Hendricks).<\/p>\n

She was born and raised in Drumb\u00e1n but left two decades ago under mysterious circumstances, with her surprise return sure to stir up feelings that were buried long ago.<\/p>\n

Patterson\u2019s arrival also has major implications for local doctor S\u00e9amus Proctor (Considine), described as a pillar of the community, who finds himself scrambling to cover a secret he has held since the turn of the millennium.<\/p>

O\u2019Dowd said: \u201cI bloody love television, and am most engrossed by stories that bring the remarkable to the everyday. I hope we\u2019ve made a beautiful show that an audience will find funny and will keep people on the edge of their seats\u2026 and beyond.\u201d<\/p>\n

At the top of the page, you can find a first glimpse at Considine in character as Dr Proctor, looking inquisitively at someone in his office, while directly below we see Hendricks walking against the stunning Irish coastline.<\/p>\n

The supporting cast also includes David Wilmot, Michelle Forbes, Peter McGann and Evanne Kilgallon, who portray characters frequently found in Drumb\u00e1n\u2019s popular pub, The White Ridge Bar.<\/p>\n

The official synopsis describes the plot as about \u201ca 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\u2019s been kept hidden since the eve of the millennium\u201d.<\/p>\n

Creator O\u2019Dowd is known for his acting roles in The IT Crowd and Bridesmaids, as well as for being both star and creator of Sky original series Moone Boy, which was semi-autobiographical and ran for three seasons.<\/p>\n
