ABC’s new kid’s drama Dead Gorgeous premieres on Monday with the adventures of three boisterous teenage sisters from 1861 who are stuck in limbo in the present day.

Starring Melissa Howard, Poppy Lee Friar and Alexandra Coppinger, the setting for the series is the historic Ripponlea mansion, adjacent to the ABC’s Melbourne studios. Formerly their family estate it is now a private school with a headmaster played by Gerry Connolly and a short-tempered teacher by Julie Forsyth.

Julie Eckersley plays the ghostly guardian to the three girls and Tangle’s Blake Davis plays one of the students.

Look out for some other familiar faces popping up in supporting roles and cameos.

Filmed as a co-production with the BBC, it premieres at 5:20pm Monday on ABC1 and continues weekdays.

  4. love the program &. the building is really cool, especially the stair case & stained glass windows, etc., no wonder they have/are showing it in the UK
    Oz can do it for the Brits!

  5. I’ve just seen the first episode on the ABC. I’ve been seeing adds for it and just assumed it was on ABC3. Since ABC3 started, most new shows have premiered on that first. It was good to see it on the normal TV first (my house doesn’t have digital). It was a very good programme and I will watch it again tomorrow. I think the actor who plays Hazel was ‘hettie’ in ‘the new worst witch’ which used to show on the ABC. I agree that it’s interesting to see it premiered in the UK first, when it was filmed in Australia.
