Hi Ali! Welcome back to ReVamp. We’re so happy to have you as our cover star again! What have you been up to since we last saw you?

I’ve been busy filming the new series of Bad Education! It’s been so much fun with fans and newcomers. The new series feels bigger, better, and more exciting! So overall, really looking forward to the release. 

Your character Warren likes to be an assistant to Layton Williams’s character ‘Stephen’. Do you have any funny memories on set when you had to do scenes with Layton?

There’s something really hard about doing scenes with Layton which is the fact he is unbelievably funny. A lot of memories I have of Layton are just trying my hardest from the entire strength of my soul not to laugh and yet failing miserably. 

What dream role would you like to play?

I always say I don’t have a dream role in particular. I would love to be in a position in the future where I can look back at my last five roles and notice that they have been different. 

Lastly, if you had the opportunity to ReVamp something from when you were in school. What would it be and why? 

I was doing homework with my twelve-year-old brother the other day. Some of the homework assignments were quite shocking. I would revamp some homework assignments and my brother’s assignment was to create an art piece of Genesis as in the bible. My brother asked me what to do? And my response was I don’t know what to do either! So what we did was we made a calendar about what the Catholics believe God made in the first week of the seven days.


Bad Education is on BBC Three at 9pm from Sunday, with all episodes available on BBC iPlayer.
