BBC One has found the two leads for The Mallorca Files. Elen Rhys (Broadchurch) Julian Looman (Cop Stories) have been tapped to to star in the ten part daytime drama series which hails from The Good Karma Hospital and Trust Me creator Dan Sefton. 
Dan Sefton is proving to be one of the most prolific British TV writers of recent memory. The scribe - who has The Good Karma Hospital at ITV, Porters at UKTV's Dave channel, Trust Me at BBC One, and Delicious at Sky One - has set a new project with the BBC. The Mallorca Files, about a British and German detective clashing over their very different approaches to policing the island, has been green-lit at the Beeb for BBC One's daytime schedule. The show's ten episode first season will be made available in its entirety on the BBC iPlayer on the same day the first episode premieres on BBC One.
