Emily Atack is glam 80s icon filming scenes for new show with David Tennant
Emily Atack has transformed into a star from the 1980s as she joined David Tennant on set of his new Disney+ show.
The former Inbetweeners actress looked incredible as she was filming scenes in Bristol for the hotly-anticipated show Rivals, based on the best-selling book by author Jilly Cooper.
During one scene which took place on the red carpet of an awards show, the 33-year-old had her blonde permed hair piled high on her head, which complemented her shiny retro black and gold outfit.
Wearing a black and gold print bolero, the rest of her outfit was perfectly 80s, as she rocked a gold corset teamed with a black and gold brocade skirt, and matching gold heels.

Emily was laughing and joking between takes, and was spotted waiting patiently on the steps as she prepared to film her red carpet scene.
Her co-star David, who plays Lord Tony Baddingham in the show, was also seen during Emily’s scenes in Bristol, and Motherland star Oliver was briefly spotted alongside Emily.

Author Jilly, who serves as an executive producer on the show, said she was "utterly enchanted" with the ensemble cast, as it featured the "best acting talent that the British Isles has to offer."
“I cannot wait to be on set and see them bring the characters I love so much to life. The minute we met with Alex we knew he’d perfectly embody my all-time hero, the iconic, racy, ruthless and devastatingly handsome Rupert Campbell-Black. Viewers are in for a treat!" she gushed.
