Hi to you all, not sure if you've heard or not (I only found this info by accident) but Shaun will be in a new series on the ABC next year called Laid.
There's a sneaky peak of a part of it on the tube:
But pretty much the blurb is:
What happens when a bad one-night stand from your distant past dies in horrible circumstances on a beach in Fiji? Are you supposed to go to the funeral, even though the sum total of his sexual knowledge was gleaned from Revenge of the Nerds? Do you murmur platitudes about him to his loved ones despite his off-putting habit of yelling 'TOUCHDOWN' when he 'finished'?
Roo McVie is faced with these questions and more when boring Brendan from her Uni days dies tragically on holiday. It's enough to make any single girl re-live some of her murkier sexual moments. Not a pleasant place to visit, to be perfectly honest. But when a second ex leaves this mortal coil, she's forced to dwell a little longer.
Add a third on to that, and things just start getting weird.
Laid is a series about sex. Sex and death. Death and valour. Life and love. For Roo, it's hard enough just trying to work out who she is and what it's all about without being dragged back to her chequered bedroom past to protect her exes – and preserve her chance at true love.
LAID, a PORCHLIGHT FILMS production in association with ABC TV, Film Victoria and Screen Australia; written and created by MARIEKE HARDY and KIRSTY FISHER, directed by TRENT O'DONNELL, produced by LIZ WATTS, starring ALISON BELL, CELIA PACQUOLA, TOBY TRUSLOVE and ABE FORSYTHE.
So... I'm guessing not a huge part since Shaun's not even part of the blurb. But still absolutely relevant to our interests!!
