Development
A television adaptation of Horgan's short was in development as of July 2019.[2] Ellie Heydon serves as lead director. Dreamland is produced by Horgan and Celia Mountford's Merman Films in association with Sky Studios. Jane Bell produces, with Alex Moody of Sky as executive producer, and Emma Jane Unsworth was named showrunner and associate producer. Gabby Best, Sharma Walfall and Sarah Kendall joined Unsworth in the writers' room.[3]
In June 2022,[4] it was revealed Lily Allen would make her television acting debut in Dreamland. The following month, Freema Agyeman was announced as Allen's co-lead. Gabby Best, Aimee-Ffion Edwards, and Frances Barber would reprise their roles from Morgana Robinson's Summer.[5] Also joining the cast were Kiell Smith-Bynoe and Sheila Reid; Samantha Bond would guest star.[3]
Principal photography began on location in Margate, Kent in summer 2022. Among the locations used were the town's tidal pool, the Dalby Cafe, and the Winter Gardens.[6] Allen was spotted on set in July.[7] Filming also took place in London.[3]
Reception
Rachel Aroesti in The Guardian remarked that "Stretched out over a series arc, Dreamland is a paler, flabbier and altogether sunnier proposition than the lean, mean, spiky short it is based on. Brutal naturalism is out, misty-eyed warmth is in" and awarded it three out of five stars.[8] Isobel Lewis in The Independent also awarded three out of five stars.[9]
