New Project: Carthago

23/11/2021

Philip is to star in a new project commissioned by Israel's public broadcasting corporation.

Based on a true story, the action takes place in a British built detention camp (Carthago Camp) that was built in the remotest corner of the African wilderness to imprison the most dangerous terrorists and freedom fighters caught within the boundaries of their crumbling Empire in the 1940s. The series mixes suspense with wit as prisoners repeatedly try to break out of the inescapable hell they have been confined to.

The series will also star Irish actor, Shaun Paul McGrath.

Filming is currently taking place in Colombia and an air date has yet to be confirmed.

Outcast confirmed for 3rd April on FovTVUK

5/3/2017

FOX has announced April 3rd as the UK premiere for season 2 of Robert Kirkman’s supernatural thriller Outcast. The second season will consist of 10 episodes and will premiere following the season 7 finale of The Walking Dead and it’s companion series Talking Dead - an event which they're calling 'Walkers vs Demons night'.

In a press release, creator Robert Kirkman said:

The Outcast story, although supernatural on the surface, explores how people cope with extreme circumstances while protecting the ones they love. It’s a theme with which audiences across the world can relate. “I am thrilled that audiences in over 125 different countries will soon have the chance to see how Kyle, and the other residents of Rome, West Virginia, continue to deal with a town, and a world, that is rapidly becoming darker, sinister and more unpredictable in the show’s second season.”

The time of broadcast is yet to be confirmed but we're assuming 11pm given the information about following the Walking/Talking Dead. Whether it will move to TWD's 9pm timeslot in the weeks following we do not yet know.

Philip to appear on new Harry Hill show

17/1/2017

Philip is set to appear on a new TV panel show later in the year. And we have been asked to help!

Harry Hill's Alien Fun Capsule, will see two teams tasked with saving planet earth from alien invasion! Each team must find clips, people, basically anything that is fun or funny enough for Harry to place in a capsule which, in the event that we're invaded by aliens, we can present to them to demonstrate earthlings are good fun and therefore worthy of saving. Over a series of rounds, the two teams of two present Harry with fun stuff which Harry must adjudicate on and ultimately decide what's in and what's out of the Fun Capsule with the triumphant team winning bragging rights.

Along the way there will be sketches, studio items and special guests. And the occasional appearance of an alien!

It is not yet known what form Philip's appearance will take - whether he will be on one of the teams or just putting in a brief appearance., but we have been contacted by the production company with a request to use some of our content on the show. They would like to use some photos from our Fan Encounters page to feature on the show.

We are extremely honoured to have been asked to participate in this way - it's a huge compliment! If you are interested in having your photo with Philip featured on our fansite and on the show, please do get In touch

The show will record at the end of the month and air on ITV later in the year.
