Four years after first being approached by production company Urban Myth Films, the TV version of my novel The One debuted on Netflix recently. In the space of a weekend, it became the most watched TV series in the UK, and the second most watched show in the world. That’s a phenomenal statistic that I can’t quite get my head around yet! Thank you to everyone who streamed it and made it such a hit.
As anyone who watched the drama will know, it’s quite different to the book I wrote. But my book is my vision and the television adaptation is the filmmaker’s vision. There is plenty of room for both and if you’ve only seen the series, my book is always there to compare the two.
It’s too early to know if there will be a second season yet, but fingers crossed there will be as
I can’t wait to see where they take our story next!
