SHOOTING will soon be under way on the first series of Guernsey-inspired comedy This Is Jinsy.

Former Elizabeth College students Chris Bran and Justin Chubb have spent the last six months writing the eight-part series.

Last year they produced a pilot of the show for BBC3, but the BBC decided not to pick up the series.

However positive reviews meant the comedy was picked up by Sky and it is due to be shown on new channel Sky Atlantic this summer.
