Santa Monica, CA - August 7, 2012 Ovation, the only network celebrating art, artists and all forms of artistic storytelling, continues its critically acclaimed, "The Best You've Never Seen" with a move to Monday nights and the U.S. premiere of WHAT TO DO WHEN SOMEONE DIES.

Based on the best-selling novel by Nicci French (the pseudonym for the writing partnership of journalists Nicci Gerrard and Sean French), WHAT TO DO WHEN SOMEONE DIES is the story of Ellie Manning, a young wife who struggles to uncover the truth behind her husband's death, after he dies in a late night car crash with a strange woman in the seat beside him. This plot-twisting mini-series stars Anna Friel (Limitless, Pushing Daisies) as "Ellie Manning" and Marc Warren (Hustle, Band of Brothers) as "Greg Manning." The mini-series is directed by Tim Fywell (Mistresses, Waking the Dead, Inspector Lewis).

Parts two and three of the series will air on consecutive Mondays, August 27 and September 3, in the same time slot.
