Interesting article by Brian Ferguson in the Edinburgh Evening News.
A Nordic Noir-style Gaelic drama made on the Isle of Skye is to be shown in France, after its producers clinched its first international sales deal.
Bannan, which has been made on the Hebridean island since 2013, will be shown in Breton dubbed versions and also subtitled in French.
The show, which has revolved around a murder mystery in a remote island community, is being sold around the world as Scotland’s answer to hit series like The Killing and the Bridge.
The production is based at Sabhal Mòr Ostaig, the Gaelic college on Skye, with filming carried out on campus or on location within a few miles.
