Henry, who was recently cast on Amazon's Lord of the Rings, will make Three Little Birds with Davies consulting on the script. "The six-part series will narrate a Windrush-era story of two sisters, Leah and Chantrelle, and their Bible-loving acquaintance, Hosanna, as they leave the Caribbean to embark on a new life in Britain," per Deadline. "On arriving in Notting Hill, they quickly realize that London is not for them and flee to the Midlands, overcoming racism and integration issues to make a new home for themselves."
