The Riches and K-Ville picked up

The Riches has been purchased by Virgin Media for their new Virgin 1 channel

The FX drama which stars Eddie Izzard and Minnie Driver has already been picked up for a second season in the US.

The pair play a couple of con artists who decide to settle down in the Deep South.

Given the involvement of Izzard and Driver its somewhat surprising that the series was not picked up by a terrestrial network or, dare I say it, a more prominent boradcaster.

In addition K-Ville has been picked up by Channel Five. The police drama is set in New Orleans post Hurricane Katrina and stars Anthony Anderson. It premieres on FOX in the US this autumn.
