There will be a strong Australian contingent at Series Mania in France this year, including Jungle Entertainment’s Wakefield, Aquarius Films’ The Unusual Suspects, Porchlight Films’ Fisk and Lazy Susan Films’ Iggy & Ace.

Kitty Flanagan.
Production is underway on Kitty Flanagan’s six-part comedy Fisk (previously Entitled) for the ABC in Melbourne.
Flanagan stars as Helen Tudor-Fisk, a contract lawyer who is forced to take a job at a shabby suburban law firm specialising in wills and probate. The “fast-paced workplace sitcom” will also star Julia Zemiro, Marty Sheargold, Aaron Chen and Glenn Butcher, diving in to the everyday world of inheritances and squabbling relatives.
One of Porchlight Films’ final productions, the series is produced by Vincent Sheehan and co-directed and written by Flanagan with Penny Flanagan. Tom Peterson also directs. EPs are Greg Sitch, Liz Watts and Anita Sheehan, with ABC head of comedy Todd Abbott and Brett Sleigh.
Flanagan says: “This is the dream. My own show with all my favourite people both in front of the camera and behind it too. I’m thrilled to be making this in Melbourne for the ABC.
