London, UK – Thursday 30th March, 2023: London was transformed into the sunny seaside town of Margate tonight, as stars attended a Special Screening of the brand-new Sky Original series, Dreamland. Cast of the new series, Lily Allen, Freema Agyeman, Gabby Best, Aimee-Ffion Edwards and Kiell Smith-Bynoe were pictured upon arrival at Picturehouse Central in London to promote the series launch on Sky Atlantic and streaming service NOW from 6th April.
The screening was also attended by David Harbour (actor and husband of Lily Allen, credits include Stranger Things, We Have A Ghost), as well as the Executive Producers of the series, Clelia Mountford and Sharon Horgan, and director Ellie Heydon.
Dreamland is a big-hearted drama about secrets, lies, loves and aspirations within a family of four sisters. Set in the sun-drenched British seaside town of Margate, it is a dark comedic exploration of multi-generational female relationships, and their (somewhat dysfunctional) family dynamics. Eldest sister Trish (Freema Agyeman) is pregnant for the third time with her partner Spence (Kiell Smith- Bynoe). And this time, she’s decided: it’s going to be a girl. Her two sisters Clare (Gabby Best) and Leila (Aimee-Ffion Edwards) rally around her with their mum (Frances Barber) and their Margate- legend nan (Sheila Reid), “manifesting” a little girl at Trish’s ‘mani-festival’. But when their other sister, Mel (Lily Allen), makes an unexpected reappearance back into their lives, her return threatens to destabilise the entire family. A knock on their door and their ‘Dreamland’ is no more.
Dreamland is available from 6 April on Sky Atlantic and NOW
