In the UK, Fear The Walking Dead will begin on August 31 when AMC launches in the UK. The UK channel will be available exclusively to BT customers through BT TV.

The spin-off series is set in the midst of the same zombie apocalypse as The Walking Dead, but takes place in a different location, Los Angeles, and focuses on different characters and storylines. The spin-off has been co-created by Robert Kirkman, whose graphic novel also provided the basis for The Walking Dead.

Its main cast includes young British actor Frank Dillane, who played Tom Riddle in Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince, Orange Is The New Black‘s Elizabeth Rodriguez, Missing‘s Cliff Curtis and former Treme star Kim Dickens.

The Walking Dead has been a huge hit for AMC since it debuted in 2010, with its season five premiere, shown in October, attracting the highest ever audience for a drama in US cable TV history.
