Sky Originals

Created by Jez and Tom Butterworth and James Richardson, the Sky original drama follows the clashing civilisations and religions in the mythic world of Britannia, where Celtic tribes, psychedelic druids and brutal Romans battle to claim hold of the state.

Sophie will star as Hemple, the wife of Roman General Aulus, played by David Morrissey (The Singapore Grip). When her husband fails on his mission to capture Cait, the chosen one, Hemple steps in to finish the job.

The third season of There’s Something About Movies will see comedian Alan Carr return as host, with Jennifer Saunders (Absolutely Fabulous) and Michael Sheen (Quiz) returning as team captains and Tom Allen re-uniting with the crew.

Packed full of movie trivia, insider film insights and infamous re-enactments, this series will also feature the show’s first ever Christmas special.

The new studio is planned to house the production of multiple TV shows and films simultaneously and will be located in Elstree, close to the home of Star Wars and Strictly Come Dancing, Elstree Studios.

Backed by Sky’s recent new owner Comcast, the new studio will be developed in partnership with sister-company NBCUniversal and Legal & General.
