Small Island is a two-part 2009 BBC One television drama adapted from the 2004 novel of the same title by Andrea Levy. The programme stars Naomie Harris and Ruth Wilson as joint respective female protagonists Hortense Roberts and Queenie Bligh, two women who struggle to fulfil their personal ambitions and dreams amidst the chaos of World War II London and Jamaica. Additional cast members include David Oyelowo as Hortense's husband Gilbert Joseph, Benedict Cumberbatch as Queenie's husband Bernard Bligh and Ashley Walters as young RAF Pilot Michael Roberts who becomes entangled in both the women's lives.
The serial was developed by producers Joanna Anderson and Vicky Licorish of AL Films. The script was first written by Sarah Williams and later amended by Paula Milne. It was directed by John Alexander, who also directed the BBC's 2008 adaptation of Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility. The serial consists of two 90-minute episodes that premiered on 6 December 2009, and was shown in the United States on PBS as part of the channel's Masterpiece Classic Collection beginning 18 April 2010.
