the cast and crew
Matt Cameron and Andrew Knight are veteran writers in the television industry - judging from their IMDb credits they would have worked together a bit in the past too - Knight worked on the excellent Aussie series 'Rake' which aired in 2010.
Director Jeffrey Walker's pedigree doesn't look all that flash, but I am hoping the producers have plucked out a semi-obscure gem in much the same way that Jack Irish's gambling friends can.
As for the cast, I anticipate Aaron Pederson will be puuuurfect as the laconic, highly capable Cam Delray, who is probably the best character in the books apart from Irish himself.
Guy Pearce is an outstanding actor, and whilst I never pictured Jack Irish to look like the gaunt Pearce, I have little doubt that the thespian will pull it off with aplomb.
Roy Billing as Harry Strang ? Not so keen, but happy to be proven wrong.
