Timothy Spall, Juliet Stevenson and Matthew Macfadyen are to star in a new three-part ghost story for Sky Living.

The drama, called The Enfield Haunting, will be directed by Kristoffer Nyholm, whose credits include Danish drama The Killing.



Produced by Eleven Films, it is based on the book This House is Haunted, by Guy Lyon Playfair, which has been adapted by Joshua St Johnston.

Spall said described the script as “full of emotional texture”.

“I am very much looking forward to working with the excellent team Sky Living and Eleven Films have assembled,” he said.

US Sherlock Holmes update Elementary will be back on British screens this autumn on Sky Living, RadioTimes.com can confirm.

The show, starring Jonny Lee Miller as the eccentric detective, returns to US network CBS for a second series on September 26, and is expected to come to Sky around a fortnight later, pointing to an air date of mid-October.

The modern-day American take on the Sherlock Holmes stories is the highest rating show in Sky Living’s 20-year history, averaging 1.12 million viewers per episode.

The series co-stars Lucy Liu as Holmes’s female partner Dr Joan Watson and ended last month with the revelation that his former lover Irene Adler, played by Game of Thrones star Natalie Dormer, was also his arch-nemesis Moriarty.
