First look at the BBC's The Day of the Triffids.

Advertisements [?]

Just over a year after it was first announced, the BBC has released the first images from their mini-series based on the John Wyndham sci fi novel "The Day of the Triffids."

The two part 90-minute drama, which is set to air December 28th-29th, was adapted for 2009 by Patrick Harbinson whose impressive resume also includes "ER" and "Law & Order."

"Triffids" also boasts an 'all-star' cast that includes Bill Masen, Joely Richardson, Brian Cox, Vanessa Redgrave, Eddie Izzard and Jason Priestley.

Filming for "The Day of the Triffids" took place in the UK last April under the direction of Nick Copus (The Summit, EastEnders) and producers Justin Bodle and Stephen Smallwood. The mini-series is a co-production between Power (UK) and Canadian production company, Prodigy Pictures.
