Jayde Adams begins filming ITVX comedy Ruby Speaking
Production has begun on new ITVX comedy Ruby Speaking, starring Jayde Adams and Katherine Kelly.Â
Â
The 6 x 30 series is the latest order from ITV’s newly-launched streaming service, and is written by well-known comedy and drama scribe Abigail Wilson, whose credits include The Tail of the Curious Mouse, The Larkins and Call My Agent.Â
Â
Ruby Speaking was created by Adams, Wilson and Lucy Lumsden; the latter exec produces for Yellow Door Productions. Jon Macqueen produces; Rosie Gaunt-Mathieson directs. Â
Â
Adams plays the titular Ruby, a newly-single member of the customer service team at the Bristol call centre of Hellocom. With a fun and irreverent personality, Ruby finds it hard to stick to her prepared scripts and, as in her life outside work, chooses to go her own way.Â
Â
The supporting cast includes Sam Swainsbury, Joe Sims, Jamal Franklin, Nicky Goldie, Amy-Leigh Hickman, Dan Hiscox and Kiera Lester.Â
Â
Ruby Speaking is the latest in a raft of original scripted projects commissioned by ITVX – other recently-completed productions for the streaming service include Archie, a Cary Grant biopic starring Jason Isaacs; vampire sitcom Count Abdullah and Significant Other, a comedy from Quay Street Productions based on an Israeli format.Â
