Jenna Coleman has taken on a new role as rookie cop Ember Manning in the upcoming BBC Studios series, The Jetty. The show, set in a picturesque lake town in Lancashire, North West England, is a crime thriller created by Cat Jones and produced by Firebird Pictures. Coleman was drawn to the character of Ember, describing her as a complex and emotive figure that delves into relationships and thought-provoking themes.
The Jetty, a four-part series, is set to premiere in the U.K. later this year and is expected to captivate audiences with its blend of entertainment and exploration of challenging topics such as sexual morality. The plot revolves around Ember's investigation into a fire at a lakeside holiday home, a missing persons cold case, and an illicit love triangle involving underage girls.
