“Dope Girls,” an upcoming six-part historical drama series, is set to captivate audiences with its gritty portrayal of the British drug underground. Based on Marek Kohn’s nonfiction novel Dope Girls: The Birth of the British Drug Underground, Bad Wolf developed this series in collaboration with Sony Pictures Television for BBC One.
Julianne Nicholson, known for her gripping performance in Mare of Easttown, stars as Kate Galloway. Kate is a resilient single mother who establishes a nightclub amidst the hedonistic uproar of post-World War One London. Her descent into a life of crime is driven by a fierce determination to provide for her daughter Evie, portrayed by Eilidh Fisher (The Power).
Eliza Scanlen (“Little Women”) delivers a compelling performance as Violet Davies, one of the first female officers in the Metropolitan Police. Tasked with going undercover, Violet dives deep into the seedy world of Soho’s underground nightclubs.
It is here that she encounters Billie Cassidy, a dazzling bohemian dancer played by Umi Myers (“Bob Marley: One Love”). Kate’s arrival dramatically alters Billie’s life, setting off a chain of events that promise to be as thrilling as they are dangerous.
Supported by a talented cast including Michael Duke, Ian Bonar, and Fiona Button, “Dope Girls” explores the intricate dynamics of London’s underworld. Executive producers Polly Stenham, Alex Warren, Kate Crowther, Jane Tranter, and Michael Lesslie have crafted a series that is not only visually stunning but also rich in historical detail.
With its premiere on the horizon, “Dope Girls” promises to be a must-watch for fans of historical drama and crime thrillers. Mark your calendars for an unforgettable journey into the birth of the British drug underground.
