'The Little Drummer Girl' star Florence Pugh is already awaiting the second season to find out more about her character Charlie

While the show has barely had its first episode on BBC, Pugh is already imagining what more could happen with her character.
PUBLISHED OCT 29, 2018

Florence Pugh thinks that it is her character's simplicity in 'The Little Drummer Girl' that makes her so authentic. The BBC's second adaptation of a John Le Carre novel (the first being producer ‎Rob Bullock's adaptation of Carre's 1993 novel, 'The Night Manager') follows the story of a girl who suddenly finds herself in the place of a spy instead of being an actress that she had aspired to be. 

The six-part drama follows Charlie (played by Pugh) who has set off to Greece to pursue her career as an actress when she was asked for an impromptu performance of a stage version of Shakespeare's 'As You Like It'. However, Charlie finds herself in a trap when she is compelled to act as a double agent for the Israeli spy, Marty Kurtz (played by Michael Shannon) who is plotting to kill a Palestinian terrorist. Amid all of this, Charlie is quickly moved to Athens by an alluring stranger (played by Alexander Skarsgard), where she works with shadow puppets on a deserted Acropolis and ultimately falls in love.
