Oct. 6 (UPI) -- Cold Feet, The Hobbit and Run Away actor James Nesbitt is set to star in the BBC workplace comedy, Hopley Hall.

Created and written by Daniel Peak, the series is being shot in Northern Ireland and will star Jamie-Lee O'Donnell, James Martin, Leela Harris, Georgie Glen, Tommy Belshaw and Jeany Spark.

It follows the staff of a deteriorating stately home.

"To be going back to the coast of Antrim, where my mother grew up and where I spent much of my childhood is an absolute treat," Nesbitt said in a press release Monday.

"Hopley Hall is an innovative and funny series that will show off the beauty of Northern Ireland. The scripts have a uniquely Northern Irish sense of humor running through them and I'm looking forward to working alongside some truly great local talent."
