BBC One have released some new information on this upcoming drama film starring Eve Myles and Trevor Eve.
When a secretive convoy of men and trucks start arriving in a remote Welsh village, the villagers discover that the National Gallery in London has been flooded and its priceless paintings are being sent to Wales for safe storage in the bowels of the old slate mine (just as they were during the Second World War).
In charge of this operation is Lester, an intelligent but reserved curator who prefers paintings to people. That is until a funny and pivotal misunderstanding leads him to invite the local children to view the paintings inside the mountain, setting off an extraordinary chain of events that transform the lives of the villagers and, eventually, Lester himself.
Framed is adapted by Frank Cottrell Boyce from his best-selling children’s novel.
They’ve also released a short video clip which features both characters investigating some paintings.
