New Delhi: There is a forthcoming television series that will be a historical comedy called The Completely Made-Up Adventures of Dick Turpin. Noel Fielding will play the titular character in this series.
This British comedy, which was co-directed by Ben Palmer and George Kane, depicts the tale of a thief – Dick Turpin – who is not a typical burglar. He steals throughout the night while hiding in hidden places and doing his crimes. One of Dick’s many talents is that he can break people’s hearts and enchant them more quickly than a comic can crack their punchlines.
