Éanna Hardwicke in The Doll Factory

Two of Ireland’s biggest stars don period garb for The Doll Factory, a major new series adapted from Elizabeth Macneal’s best-selling novel. Set in Victorian England - but actually filmed on location in Ireland - the twisty new drama centres on a woman who paints dolls for a living, but really wants to become an artist.

Told through a sharp modern gaze, the suspenseful series looks at the ambitions of a number of people in a city humming with anticipation but also fraught with dangers.
