Everything I Know About Love cast: who stars in Dolly Alderton BBC drama with Bel Powley and Emma Appleton?

Everything I Know About Love is a BBC drama series about two best friends who have grown up together and are now navigating their way through young adulthood together, as they move into a London flatshare.

The series is adapted from the semi-biographical novel by award-winning journalist and author Dolly Alderton.

There’s trouble in paradise when one of the friends gets involved in their first serious relationship and the pair realise that they are growing apart.

Who is in the cast of Everything I Know About Love?

Emma Appleton as Maggie

Maggie is the chaotic best friend of Birdy, and the series starts with the pair moving into a London house-share together with Nell and Amara.

The character of Maggie is inspired by Dolly Alderton herself and gets herself into a series of fun but messy scrapes.

Appleton has previously starred as Fay Brookstone in drama series Clique, and had a leading role as Feef Symonds in the spy series Traitors.

She also played the ill-fated Nancy Spungen in the punk biopic Pistol, and appeared as Renfri in season one of The Witcher.

Bel Powley as Birdy

Birdy is the more trepidatious and sensible of the pair and has been living in a permanent state of singleton for what feels like forever.

But when Birdy gets a boyfriend, the bonds of friendship between her and Maggie are tested.

Powley may be recognisable to eagle-eyed viewers for one of her earliest roles - that of Daisy Millar in the CBBC series M.I. High.

Since then she has played Bianca in Benidorm, Holly Morten in crime series The Informer alongside Paddy Considine, and Claire Conway in drama series The Morning Show.

Marli Siu as Nell

Nell is Maggie and Birdy’s flatmate who appears to have her life together - she is a newly qualified teacher in a long-term relationship.

However, Nell is tired of her relationship and looking for any excuse to get out of it and move on with her life.

Siu starred as Echo in the online mystery drama Dixi but may be more recognisable for her role as Kyra in the Anthony Horrowitz adaptation series Alex Rider.

She also had roles in the crime fantasy series The Irregulars and Scottish comedy show Still Game.

Aliyah Oddofin as Amara

Amara is a real estate agent trying to fit into the world of London’s corporate elite.

She has a talent for dancing and regrets giving up on a creative career to go into property, and continues to dream of becoming a successful dancer.

Everything I Know About Love marks Oddofin’s first TV appearance, although she has previously starred in two short films - Better Get Better, and Hamlet, NW5.
