Ella Purnell Describes Season 2 of ‘Sweetpea’ as ‘Big’ and ‘Bonkers’ After Filming Wraps

Frame 1171276614

Ella Purnell has finished filming the second season of Sweetpea, where she returns as Rhiannon Lewis. The new season is set to air on Sky Atlantic and Starz.

While discussing the upcoming premiere of Fallout on Prime Video—which debuts December 17—Purnell shared that she wrapped production on the latest season of Kirstie Swain‘s British dark comedy thriller last month. The series is based on the 2017 novel by CJ Skuse.

Purnell described the experience as intense, saying, “I’m exhausted, and it was worth it. It was a really crazy season. Season 1 was quite very small and tame in comparison to how bonkers this season is. There’s so much in it. It’s big.”

In Sweetpea, Purnell plays Rhiannon, a quiet character often overlooked by those around her, who develops a dangerous and liberating attraction to murder. Purnell also stars as Lucy MacLean in Fallout, and she spoke about the challenge of switching between her two very different roles. “It’s a weird switch to make actually,” she said. “I was watching Fallout today, and when Lucy does even the slightest thing bad that’s like so new for her, I’m like, ‘Rhiannon would do that in a heartbeat. Rhiannon can do that.’”

New episodes of Fallout will be available to stream on Prime Video every Wednesday starting December 17.
