According to TheBookseller.com, Kate Atkinson's Jackson Brodie will be adapted for the BBC. I hope that translates to PBS in the U.S. It will be shown in early 2011 on BBC One.
“Case Histories” will be a six-part series adapted from the mystery novels Case Histories, One Good Turn and When Will There Be Good News? Private detective Brodie will be played by Jason Isaacs, (was Lucius Malfoy in the Harry Potter movies).
The production company is Ruby Films, which also adapted "Small Island" and "The Other Boleyn Girl. The series will be filmed in Edinburgh.
Atkinson’s new Brodie novel Started Early, Took my Dog, published by Doubleday, will be out on August 19 alongside new-look reissues of her other Brodie titles.

I love these books as well; just ordered the new one from Amazon.UK; US edition will not be released here until March 2011
Not until March 2011? Wow. Thought it was a simultaneous publication. Guess I'll order from the UK
Some very good news for very good books. Congrats.
