I caught the back end of Chris Moyles (now there’s a thought) this morning. Their guest for today was James Nesbitt, predictably plugging the new series of Murphy’s Law which begins on Sunday.

Whilst chatting with Moyles, Nesbitt mentioned he was to star in a modernisation of Jekyll & Hyde. I hadn’t heard about this, and ordinarily I’d think it was a pretty crap idea. However: A) I quite like James Nesbitt, and I’d like to see what he does with the character, and B) it’s been created by Steven Moffatt, and by the sounds of it he’s been working on it for a while.

Moffatt, for those who don’t know, is the creator of the BBC Sit-Com Coupling, and the writer of (probably) the best Doctor Who episodes from the new series. I’m interested to see what his take on the Jekyll & Hyde mythos is.

Apparently the series is called Jekyll. Look out for it.
