Anthony Boyle and Toby Jones lead cast of new BBC Two drama Danny Boy
Filming has begun on BBC Two's Danny Boy (working title), a compelling new drama produced by Expectation about a young man's journey from medal-winning war hero to alleged murderer, and his search for truth in the fog of war.
The two men go head to head in a legal and moral conflict that takes us from the battlefield - at so-called Checkpoint Danny Boy - to the courtroom, and one of Britain's biggest ever public inquiries, the Al-Sweady Inquiry.
Anthony Boyle (Ordeal By Innocence, The Plot Against America) plays real-life soldier Brian Wood, accused of war crimes in Iraq by the human rights lawyer Phil Shiner, played by Toby Jones (Marvellous, Detectorists).
