Description

Award-winning film director Steve McQueen is teaming up with the BBC to make an epic drama about the lives of black Britons over more than half a century. McQueen, who grew up in west London, is widely expected to pick up an Oscar nomination for best director for his latest film 12 Years A Slave. The film-maker said he planned to gather a group of actors for a series of workshops to develop the BBC series, to be set in west London, which will stretch from the late Sixties to the present day.
