NEW KILLING EVE
After roles in My Mad Fat Diary and Thirteen, Jodie Comer became a household name in 2015 as ‘other woman’ Kate Parks in BBC1’s acclaimed drama Doctor Foster. And proving that there’s no limit to her talents, this week she plays a fearsome Russian assassin in BBC1’s unconventional and darkly funny new thriller Killing Eve. Adapted by Fleabag star Phoebe Waller-Bridge from the books by Luke Jennings, the eight-part drama is centred on MI5 officer Eve Polastri, played by Grey’s Anatomy actress Sandra Oh, who finds herself on the trail of a contract killer, code-named Villanelle, played by Comer. As the series begins, Eve is bored in her desk job at MI5 when news comes in of a string of high-profile murders across Europe, including a shady Russian diplomat in Vienna and a Mafia boss in Tuscany.
