Sophie Rundle wants to star in a remake of ‘The Good Life’.
The 31-year-old actress is a huge fan of Barbara Good – who was a central character in the iconic British sitcom – and Sophie has now revealed she’d love to appear in a remake of the BBC show.
Speaking to the Radio Times, Sophie – who portrayed Ada Shelby in ‘Peaky Blinders’ – shared: "She is my icon. I love wearing my dungarees and wellies. If anybody wants to remake ‘The Good Life’, call me."
‘The Good Life’ first appeared on TV screens back in 1975 and the hit show told the story of a married couple who were trying to escape the frustrations of modern living.
The popular programme starred the likes of Richard Briers, Felicity Kendal, Penelope Keith and Paul Eddington.
Meanwhile, Sophie previously admitted she was "desperate" to star in ‘Gentleman Jack’ after hearing that Sally Wainwright had written the period drama.
The actress was keen to appear on the show after reading about the "most extraordinary love story" in the scripts.
Sophie – whose character is in a relationship with industrialist Anne Lister – said: "I got an email from my agent saying that there’s this new series written by Sally, who I’d worked with before on ‘Happy Valley’. She said she’d like me to come in for Ann Walker and sent me six scripts.
"Having read them all I remember thinking this is one of the most extraordinary love stories I’ve ever read, regardless of the fact that these are two women it is just a beautiful love story.
"Plus Sally Wainwright’s name is synonymous with the best drama we’re producing in this country, so obviously I was desperate to do it."
