Bill Nighy, Helena Bonham Carter, Erin Doherty and Tom Burke are to star in the BBC’s new series, California Avenue.

The series is set in a secluded canal-side caravan park deep in the luscious English countryside, its peace is irrevocably disrupted by the arrival of Lela (Doherty) and her 11-year-old child, both on the run, looking for refuge in this hidden world.

Nighy and Bonham Carter star as Jerry and Eddie, Lela’s parents, while Tom Burke co-stars as showman outcast, Cooper. 

Filming begins later this summer in and around Hertfordshire. California Avenue will premiere on BBC iPlayer and BBC One.
