Matthew Macfadyen to attend RomaFictionFest 2012

Matthew Macfadyen will be attending RomaFictionFest 2012 for BBC WorldWide.

RomaFictionFest 2012 is held in Rome, Italy from September 30th - October 5th and can best be described from the quote below

RomaFictionFest is the biggest worldwide festival dedicated to international television fiction from TV series to TV movies, from mini-series to docu-fiction and from comedy to former great works. In its entirety the festival has become an important point of reference for the public, sector professionals and both local and international talent.

BBC Worldwide is to have an entire day dedicated to the drama titles it represents around the world.

Taking place on Monday 1st October at the Auditorium Parco della Musica, the exclusive BBC Worldwide events will feature a masterclass, two panel sessions and drama premieres that will be open to attending industry and general public.

Matthew Macfadyen (Pride and Prejudice, Spooks) will walk the red carpet at the premiere of new crime drama Ripper Street.

BBC America will delay broadcast of Ripper Street

Thanks to luce, we found out that BBC America will probably show Ripper Street, starring Matthew Macfadyen, in 2013, rather than the hoped for October 2012, when BBC (UK) is expected to air it.

BBC actually has been airing more shows close to simultaneously in the UK and America. But “Ripper Street” won’t make it to BBC America until sometime in 2013.
