Eleanor Tomlinson joined the Chris Evans Breakfast Show with Sky to talk about starring in Sky One s new science-fiction series, Intergalactic, and working with a Hollywood legend.
The first episode of Intergalactic is on Sky One tonight (Friday 30th April). Eleanor told Chris, “It’s about a group of convicts who are exiled into space and they hijack their prison ship looking for a promised land called Arcadia, where they can live under a no-rule system.”
The new sci-fi show is set in the year 2143, and sees a young cop (played by Savannah Steyn) have her glittering career ripped out from under her. “It’s action-packed, that’s for sure,” Eleanour explained. “At the heart of it we have a girl who is wrongly convicted of a crime she didn’t commit, and then she finds herself lumped in with the rest of us, all these convicts, and she has to try and break free.”

When Eleanor Tomlinson first got the part in Sky’s new sci-fi drama Intergalactic, she wanted it to be very, very different. “Let’s just say I didn’t want to be red-headed. I think we’ve seen that before.”
Tomlinson is referring to the fiery, flowing locks of Demelza Poldark in the BBC hit that made her name. It was a defining role for a young actor, but one so popular that she knew it would need some undefining. Seeing Tomlinson on set for Intergalactic, it’s safe to say that she has got her wish. The red hair has been replaced by blonde dreadlocks, she has scales on her forehead and is careering around holding a sub-machine gun. She looks like an angry iguana. After post-production, Tomlinson will have a forked tongue as well. Demelza has well and truly left the building.
