James Nesbitt and Jamie-Lee O’Donnell (Image: Hopley Hall Ltd) To be going back to the coast of Antrim, where my mother grew up and where I spent much of my childhood is an absolute treat. Hopley Hall is an innovative and funny series that will show off the beauty of Northern Ireland. The scripts have a uniquely Northern Irish sense of humour running through them and I’m looking forward to working alongside some truly great local talent. — James Nesbitt James Nesbitt (Cold Feet, Run Away) will join Jamie-Lee O’Donnell (Derry Girls, Leonard And Hungry Paul) in Hopley Hall, a brand-new six-part comedy created and written by Daniel Peak (Not Going Out, Code 404) for BBC iPlayer, BBC One and BBC Northern Ireland.
