Vintage: Martin and Tony were filming at the picturesque House For An Art Lover in Glasgow, a country venue built in the late 1980s, but based on a 1901 design
The show, an adaptation of author Andrew O'Hagan's critically acclaimed 2020 novel, is described as an 'intimate and devastating portrait of male friendship' as two best friends are reunited by tragedy 30-years after the 'climax of their youth.'
Set against the backdrop of 1980s Britain, it will see Compston portray one of two young men who forge a close bond over their shared love of music, film and rebellion.
