Eleanor Tomlinson Worked With a Coach on Her Accent for 'Poldark'

Eleanor Tomlinson goes for a modest and lovely lace look during the Poldark photocall at the 2016 Monte Carlo TV Festival on Wednesday morning (June 15) in Monaco.

The 24-year-old actress joined co-star Heida Reed at the event where they chatted up the return of their BBC series. The Bold and the Beautiful‘s Jacqueline MacInnes Wood is also pictured at the soap opera photocall the day before.

In a recent interview, Eleanor admitted that she, and most of the cast, had worked with a coach for her accent on the show. There’s been a general complaint going around about British television dramas and their mumbling actors.

Karen Thrussell, the show’s producer, added, “If there’s anything we can’t hear when we get the rushes back, we will go and do ATR which is digital recording. We have a couple of Cornish actors, and their accent is so strong and authentic we have to make sure we can understand it.”
