Hermione Norris and Mathew Horne have joined the cast of Agatha Raisin and the Quiche of Death.
They join Ashley Jensen in Sky1's upcoming crime drama, which will air at Christmas.
Norris will star as long-suffering housewife Jo Cummings, while Horne will play Agatha's former assistant Roy.
Meanwhile, Robert Bathurst will play Andy Cummings, Katy Wix will star as Gemma, and Jamie Glover has joined the cast as James, a love interest for Agatha.
Jason Barnett and Matt McCooey will appear as Di Wilkes and DC Bill Wong.
The drama is described as "contemporary and quirky", and is based on the Mc Beaton novel series.
It follows Agatha, a PR whizz who gives up her life in London to move to the seemingly tranquil village of Carsley, but soon finds herself embroiled in a murder mystery.
She inadvertently becomes a suspect in the murder case when she enters the village's annual quiche-making competition.

I should probably hate Albino Farm; the Mti Home Video release has all the ingredients of irritatingly shallow horror. Yet as hard as I try to push it away, I have to embrace it. I should make a disclaimer before we continue: I have a perhaps irrational enthusiasm for the foolish-travelers-meet-awesome-looking-mutants-who-eat-people subgenre. From The Hills Have Eyes to Wrong Turn 2…I love ’em all. When I learned I was being assigned a film called Albino Farm, my eyes lit up with childlike wonder.
I was disappointed. Yet I was not entirely let down.
Joe Anderson and Sean McEwen wrote/directed/produced this tragic tale of four stereotypically ignorant college kids with distinct horror personality types. Stacey (Australian star Tammin Sursok) is the kind-hearted All-American girl. Melody (Alicia Lagano) is the foul-mouthed tough chick; her apparent boyfriend Brian (Nick Richey) is the obnoxious frat-boy jerk. Sanjay (Sunkrish Bala) is the...

Horror cinema has for some time mined folklore for inspiration, whether it be Eastern Europe’s belief in vampirism or Mexico’s love affair with the goat-sucking chupacabra. American filmmakers Sean McEwen and Joe Anderson, whose feature Albino Farm hits DVD September 22 from Mti Home Video, followed suit in crafting their backwoods fright feature.
“One of the original ideas we kept coming back to,” McEwen tells Fango on the set, “was based on an actual legend specific to southern Missouri and the Ozarks about the ‘albino farm.’ There was a good foundation for a story, but it definitely needed a lot of meat put on its bones, which also gave us the opportunity to really take the creative ball and run with it.”
To help explain the urban legend from which the film’s storyline is derived (while driving to southern Missouri on a “travel day” following the previous evening’s lightning strike,...

Sean McEwen and Joe Anderson, creators of the survival shocker Albino Farm, got in touch to let us know about the new website that has opened for the film. They also shared some details about the movie’s upcoming DVD (which we first broke the news about here) and even the possibility of a follow-up feature.
The Albino Farm site can be seen here, with a trailer and more info, and the filmmakers tell Fango, “Without giving away too much of the movie, we’re certainly going to satiate the early desires of the horror fans who have responded from day one. They will soon be able to learn more about the movie, and get in on some exclusive content. One of these—the appearance of a ghost image discovered during postproduction, will be sleuthed out by a third-party ghost-hunting website, and everyone can chime in on what they think is going on,...
