Joseph Millson

This eight-episode, hourlong historical drama series is adapted from Bernard Cornwell's best-selling novels, The Saxon Stories by writer Stephen Butchard.

The series is inspired by events during the eighteenth century when Britain established a penal colony in Australia to which convicts were sent.

This series is a spin-off from the long running BBC medical drama "Casualty". Set in the same hospital as its sister series, this show follows the everyday lives, professional and personal, of the doctors, nurses and patients who find themselves, for various reasons, in the wards of Holby City General Hospital.
