After offering a few tantalizing glimpses in their general winter show reel, the BBC have released (UPDATE: or maybe not... see comments below) a brief and somewhat strangely edited new trailer for the upcoming BBC/AMC co-production The Night Manager, a miniseries based on John le Carré's 1993 novel. Hugh Laurie, Tom Hiddleston and Olivia Colman star. The Night Manager premieres in America on AMC on April 19, and is expected to air in the UK that same month. I experienced some audio dropouts when I try watching this trailer. I don't know if that's just my computer, or an issue with the video. At any rate, until I find a better version, rabid le Carré fans can feast their eyes on this one:
That looks to me like a cut and paste compilation of the snippets of The Night Manager that has been featured in the BBC's all purpose trail for all new drama coming our way in 2016. In other words, this vid has just cherry picked The Night Manager clips from the drama trailers, editing around other dramas, to create this 'trailer'
ReplyDeleteOh, that would make sense. And it would explain the odd editing and MOS bits. Good call.
