A Young Doctor's Notebook is based on a collection of short stories by Russian writer and playwright Mikhail Bulgakov. Hamm will play the older doctor, who will be seen conversing with his younger self, played by Radcliffe.

22-year-old Radcliffe said: "I have been an obsessive Bulgakov reader for a couple of years now so when the opportunity to become involved in this project came up, I could barely contain my excitement. "The book is funny, grotesque and heartfelt in equal measure and I look forward to working with a great group of people to help bring it to life." Hamm added: "I am thrilled to get the opportunity to work on such rich source material with such fantastically talented people whose work I greatly respect, and to continue the relationship with Sky who have taken such good care of Mad Men since acquiring it."

Produced by Big Talk Productions in association with Jon Hamm and Jennifer Westfeldt's Point West Pictures, the four-part series will recount Bulgakov's semi-autobiographical experiences as a young doctor working in the small village of Muryovo at the dawn of the Russian Revolution in 1917. "Clelia Mountford and Big Talk have been championing this project unabashedly and I share their great enthusiasm for bringing something original, dark, funny and moving to light," said Hamm. "Also, I have been watching Bridget Jones's Diary on infinite loop, and I think I've finally got this accent thing sorted..."

A Young Doctor's Notebook will broadcast on Sky Arts in 2013 and will be distributed internationally by BBC Worldwide. 

沪江娱乐快讯：新剧《年轻医生手册》是根据俄国作家兼剧作家米哈伊尔·布尔加科夫（Mikhail Bulgakov）的一系列小故事合辑改编的。
汉姆将饰演年长的医生，在剧中，他将与年轻时的自己（雷德克里夫饰演)对话。

22岁的雷德克里夫说：“我是布尔加科夫的书迷有几年了，所以当获得参演这个剧的机会时，我难以抑制我的兴奋之情。”“原著很有趣、风格怪诞且感情诚挚，我期待和这个伟大的团队把它生动呈现在荧屏上。”汉姆补充说：“能有机会和我非常尊重的、极具天赋的人，一同把这么丰富的素材转变成电视作品，同时又是和天空台——自从获得版权，他们对《广告狂人》就很关照——继续合作，我很激动。”

该剧由Big Talk制片公司和乔·汉姆和詹妮弗·威斯菲尔德（Jennifer Westfeldt）的 Point West 影音公司联合出品，四集的系列剧将重述布尔加科夫的半部自传经历，讲述在1917年俄国革命初期，他在一个叫木里瓦（Muryovo）的小村庄行医的故事。“克里廉·蒙特福德（Clelia Mountford）和Big Talk一直积极争取这个节目，我同他们一样怀着极大的热情把原始、黑暗、有趣、感人的故事呈现给大家。”汉姆说。“《BJ的单身日记》（Bridget Jones's Diary）我看了无数遍了，我想我能搞定口音问题。”

《年轻医生手册》将在2013年在天空艺术台播出， 由BBC Worldwide全球发行。
