“Strike” Coming to BBC One This Month!

by Sophie Reid · August 10, 2017

We’re all particularly excited to see the work of J.K. Rowling’s alter ego, Robert Galbraith, brought to the small screen this year, and we’ve been waiting impatiently to find out just when Cormoran Strike (Tom Burke) and Robin Ellacott (Holliday Grainger) are going to be on our screens. Today, after much wondering and speculation, BBC finally gave us our answer as to when it will be airing its adaptation of the first Strike novel, The Cuckoo’s Calling.

And we don’t have long to wait – the series will begin on August 27 on BBC One at 9 p.m. BST – that’s less than three weeks away!

 

The Strike series is here. #TheCuckoosCalling. Based on a novel by @jk_rowling, writing as Robert Galbraith. Starts Sunday 27th August. 9pm. pic.twitter.com/4GtpVzpBRw

MuggleNet is attending a BFI preview of the series tonight, so look out for more about the series coming very soon from us! Are you looking forward to finally getting to see Strike and Robin on screen at the end of this month?
