A “deeply romantic” BBC drama is on its way from one of Britain’s most celebrated authors.

The BBC has announced a “charming” love story is coming and it’s perfect for book fanatics.

Described as “honest, witty and tender”, the BBC and Starz are collaborating to bring author David Nicholls’ critically acclaimed best-selling novel You Are Here to life.

The upcoming eight-part series will be starring none other than multi-award-winning actors Matthew Mcfadyen of Succession fame and The Crown legend Claire Foy.

They will take on the roles of Michael and Marnie who are thrown together by a mutual friend, leading to the pair going on an unexpected epic walk.

“Against the odds, they end up on the brink of a relationship that neither was looking for, but which might be exactly the one they both need”, the description shares.

The synopsis continues: “You Are Here is about finding a connection when you least expect it and overcoming the obstacles of midlife.

“Treading the tricky path from loneliness to love, Marnie and Michael go coast-to-coast across the stunning (and sometimes soaking) English countryside, navigating an undeniable attraction that is as exhilarating as it is terrifying.”

On top of the star-studded cast, You Are Here is being directed by Room and Normal People director Lenny Abrahamson with Nicholls himself writing the adaptation.

Foy and Macfadyen are also serving as executive producers behind the scenes.

You Are Here will be set along the Coast to Coast walking trailer that runs from the Lake District to Robin Hood’s Bay in North Yorkshire with filming taking place in the Lake District and around Manchester.

As of yet, there has been no talk of a possible release date with the BBC only just announcing the heartwarming adaptation.

Author Nicholls shared: “I’m so delighted to be working on You Are Here with Element, the BBC, Starz and Lenny, whose work I’ve admired for many years.

“And Matthew and Claire are both just dream casting, wonderful in comedy and drama, so detailed and thoughtful and sympathetic.

“The intention with the novel was to write a close-up study of a relationship, but set against this magnificent landscape, and that’s our ambition here too; to make something both intimate and epic, funny and dramatic, a romantic comedy with real emotion.

“We can’t wait to bring Marnie and Michael’s journey to the screen.”

You Are Here will be available to watch on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
