Strictly's Jayde Adams sends out Bristol casting call for new ITV comedy

Ex-Strictly star Jayde Adams has put out a casting call for "fresh, new and exciting talent" in Bristol ahead of filming her ITVX comedy. The comedian, who hails from Bedminster, is set to start shooting 'Ruby Speaking', a Bristol-based comedy which follows the misadventures of a call centre worker named Ruby.

Jayde is set to play the title role of the series, which was inspired by the years she spent working in a call centre, in addition to co-creating it. And there is a chance you could star alongside the comedian-turned-dancer in the series, as she has asked young budding actors to get in touch in the next few weeks, regardless of experience.

Posting the casting call to her Instagram page today (October 27), Jayde wrote: "Ere #bristol! My new series I’m creating with Yellow Door productions and @abiwilson.typist, set in a call centre in Brizzle #rubyspeaking starts filming in January and we’re putting the casting net out far and wide!"
