Actress Bessie Carter tells us about the captivating new drama on the famous author and her siblings
-
Bessie Carter made her name as scheming Prudence Featherington in Bridgerton. Now, she's centre stage in another period drama as she takes the lead in Outrageous, a story about the scandalous Mitford clan.
Adapted from Mary S Lovell's novel The Mitford Girls, the 1930s-set six-parter sees Bessie play Nancy Mitford - the eldest of seven aristocratic siblings who each clashed in different ways with the values of their time.
"I knew a weird amount about them already," Bessie, 31, says. "I've been strangely connected to Nancy for ages."
This story is from the June 14, 2025 edition of Scottish Daily Express.
