US Civil War drama Mercy Street will receive its UK premiere on Drama channel on Sunday May 28th at 8pm.
Set on the home front of Virginia in the spring of 1862 it follows the lives of two volunteer nurses on opposite sides of the conflict; Mary Phinney, a staunch New England abolitionist, and Emma Green, a naive young Confederate belle.
Political persuasions open a window into a world where the unprecedented medical demands create a chaotic atmosphere and challenge doctors, nurses and patients in unimaginable ways, while the pressure of Union occupation threatens to tear apart the Confederate family.
Stars:
Josh Radnor (How I Met Your Mother), Mary Elizabeth Winstead (The Returned), Gary Cole (Veep, The Good Wife, Office Space), Norbert Leo Butz (Bloodline), Peter Gerety (The Wire, Syriana, Charlie Wilson’s War), AnnaSophia Robb (The Carrie Diaries).
FYI - this was recently cancelled after its second season.

Haven't got a Scooby, my dear.
Doesn't sound like my kind of thing.
