Zoë plays Charlie Hungerford, the whip-smart mother-in-law of recently widowed detective Jim Bergerac, in this reimagining of the classic 80s drama set in Jersey. Season one is streaming on U; season two arrives on U and U&DRAMA on 16 April.

Zoë has joined the cast of this ITV crime drama as Zelda Radclyffe, the quirky aunt of Cambridge professor Jasper Tempest, who helps the police solve challenging murder cases. Season four aired on PBS in the US in 2025 and comes to the UK in 2026, while filming recently finished on season five.

Shadow and Bone author Leigh Bardugo praises Zoë's 'exceptional' performance

14 April 2021 10:02

There are fewer than ten days left to wait until the Netflix Shadow and Bone adaptation is released. Recent comments by Leigh Bardugo, who wrote the hugely successful Grishaverse fantasy novels the series is based on, are bound to make you even more excited to stream it.

In an interview published by the Daily Mail, the best-selling author discusses her excitement at seeing key cast members work together. 'I think [Ben Barnes'] chemistry with Jessie [Mei Li, as the mysterious Darkling and mapmaker heroine Alina Starkov, respectively] and with many of the actors is just off the charts, and I can't tell you how much I loved watching him and Zoë [Wanamaker], who plays Baghra.'

Bardugo adds: 'Their scenes are some of my favourite, because it's just these two exceptional actors who are constantly pushing each other.'

Thankfully, we only need to wait until 23 April to see Zoë in action alongside her co-stars. In the meantime, we can enjoy the epic trailer.
