Iraq drama enlists Nesbitt
James Nesbitt has been enlisted for a BBC1 drama about the Iraq war.
The Cold Feet and Murphy's Law star will play one of the leads in the Peter Bowker-penned production charting the experiences of three British soldiers.
Occupation, to air next year, covers the war from invasion in 2003 to the present. "It's a story about three men who are united in battle, but are torn apart by the aftermath," said Bowker.
