It seems this project doesn´t have a site yet, although it looks interesting. A photo from the filming:

-----------------------------------

I cannot live without brainwork. What else is there to live for? Stand at the window there. Was there ever such a dreary, dismal, unprofitable world? See how the yellow fog swirls down the street and drifts across the dun-coloured houses. What could be more hopelessly prosaic and material? What is the use of having powers, Doctor, when one has no field upon which to exert them?

Glad to see that, at least so far, it's getting positive reception (and Martin's performance, too).
