BBC Will Air Red Rock Today

TV3's IFTA-winning original soap has seen a meteoric rise in success since beginning in January of 2015.
The show will be airing on BBC One today at 1.45pm. Based in a fictional town on Dublin seaside, Red Rock sees the fatal feuding between two rival families, the Kielys and the Hennessys. The town is torn in two as the Guards try to put an end to this war but they too get embroiled in the corrupt affairs.
A proud product of TV3, Red Rock has a pedigree team of screenwriters, producers, cast and directors that enhance the show to become the success it is with Oscar-nominated producer Ed Guiney acting as an executive producer. As well as making its English debut, Red Rock is also making its impression Stateside as it was swooped up by Amazon Prime.
Controller of Daytime TV at BBC, Dan McGolpin has every faith that Red Rock will be received as favorably in the UK as it has been here at home; I watched a few episodes of Red Rock and once I’d watched two/three episodes, I was hooked. It was really high quality. The acting is fantastic, the plots, the characters, the storylines. It’s just something I think our viewers will really enjoy. It’s going to be fascinating to see how our viewers react.”
To see how well the Dublin culture and accent that is so imbued in Red Rock translates to English viewers will be the real test for the soap. However, with such a prestigious team of soap experts behind the soap, there's no doubt that Red Rock will be a suitable fit for the BBC.
Red Rock will return to Irish TV's this September on TV3.
