It appears that the Merlin cast have had no trouble lining up their next acting roles.

Angel Coulby will first be seen soon in Stephen Poliakoff’s BBC2 series, Dancing on the Edge (pictured). The 1930’s era drama follows black jazz musicians, the Louis Lester Band, as they find fame among London’s upper classes. Coulby plays singer Jessie Tylor.

Following that, Coulby has signed up for a role in The Tunnel, a crime drama for Sky Atlantic.

The story follows detectives Karl Roebuck (Stephen Dillane) and Elise Wassermann (Clémence Poésy) who are are sent to investigate the murder of French politician. Coulby will play the wife of Karl.

The show is adapted by an Anglo-French writing team led by Ben Richards (Spooks, Outcasts, Party Animals) and based on the format of The Bridge (created by Hans Rosenfeldt).
