They’re more associated with other periods in history - Victorian, the First World War, Tudor and the 17th century - but actors Andrew Scott and Joe Alwyn have swopped the worlds of Sherlock and The Favourite and travelled back even further in time. All the way to medieval England for energetic comedy, Catherine Called Birdy.
Freda Cooper for The Peoples Movies had a chat with Andrew Scott and Joe Alwyn about the film. Exhausting muddy sword fights and hot medieval dads.

The year? 1290. In the Medieval English village of Stonebridge, Lady Catherine (known as Birdy) is the youngest child of Lord Rollo and the Lady Aislinn. Her playground is Stonebridge Manor, a house that, like the family, has seen better days. Financially destitute and utterly greedy, Rollo sees his daughter as his path out of financial ruin by marrying her off to a wealthy man for money and land. But Birdy, like all the great teen heroines, is spirited, clever, and adventurous and ready to put off any suitor that comes calling in increasingly ingenious ways. Her imagination, defiance, and deep belief in her own right to independence put her on a collision course with her parents. When the vilest suitor of all arrives, they are presented with the ultimate test of love for their daughter.
The cast for this one also includes Billie Piper, Andrew Scott, Joe Alwyn, Ralph Ineson, and Dean-Charles Chapman.
Catherine Called Birdy will be released on Amazon Prime Video from 7th October.
