Government asked to invest in Bergerac TV remake
The popular detective series Bergerac, which aired from 1981 to 1991, is set for a remake with a modern twist. Producers are seeking financial backing from the government to help bring the show back to television screens.
The original series followed detective Jim Bergerac as he solved crimes on the island of Jersey. The remake will update the setting to present-day Jersey and introduce new characters and plotlines while staying true to the spirit of the original.
Producers believe that reviving Bergerac will not only provide entertainment for audiences but also boost tourism to the island of Jersey. The government’s investment in the remake is seen as a way to stimulate the local economy and promote the beauty and culture of the island.
If successful, the Bergerac remake could pave the way for more TV productions in Jersey and create new opportunities for local actors and crew members. The government’s support for the project could have far-reaching benefits for the region.
As discussions continue between producers and government officials, fans of the original series are eagerly anticipating the return of Jim Bergerac to their screens. With the right funding in place, the remake could soon become a reality and delight both old and new audiences.
