Bill Nighy as Gideon in Gideon’s Daughter

BBC has released a press pack on Stephen Poliakoff’s Gideon’s Daughter, starring Bill Nighy and Miranda Richardson.

Bill Nighy is a PR guru who has to stop and re-evaluate his world when his daughter threatens to leave his life, perhaps as revenge for his serial infidelities. Miranda Richardson plays a mother trying to bury her grief in an unconventional way after the loss of her young son.

And a very nice interview with Bill Nighy about his role in Gideon’s Daughter, with which he is very content:

“Oh man,” he beams, “this script is just great! I read and completely loved it. I picked up the phone immediately and said, ‘I’d like to be in this, please!’ I had zero hesitation.”

Read the whole interview with Bill Nighy at BBC.

His co-star Miranda Richardson about working with Bill Nighy:

“Bill is a complete gent. He’s complex and simpatico, which is a lovely combination. And he plays great music. You always hear the Rolling Stones coming out of his trailer. What more could you want?”

The DVD of Gideon’s Daughter can already be pre ordered several places on the internet, and will be released in the beginning of March 2006. Gideon’s Daughter will be broadcasted on BBC television soon.
