Aimee Lou Wood and Suranne Jones have been spotted on set of their new TV show for the first time together in Manchester on Wednesday.
The pair have joined the star-studded cast of the upcoming BBC rom-com series, Flight Club.
Sex Education actress Aimee, 29, looked worlds away from her usual glamorous self in a casual figure which consisted of beige trousers and a white top.
The ensemble was teamed with blue overshirt and her rave locks were pulled into an updo with a claw clip.
The star appeared in deep thought as she was spotted carrying giant lollipops props in the front garden of a house.

Flight Club is a six-part drama which marks the screenwriting debut of Aimee and actor Ralph Davis.
The story follows Evie (Aimee), who has been housebound for half a year after a ‘wobble’.
She runs a film club in her garage every week, where her best friend Noa (Nabhaan Rizwan) joins her for a night of escapism.
But Noa soon gets a job offer which will take him across the country, leaving the pair to decide if they are more than just friends.
Suranne plays Evie’s eccentric and unconventional mother, Suz.
The full synopsis reads: ‘Friday night. 7pm. Film Club Week 198. Evie hasn’t left the house in six months after a ‘wobble’, and Film Club is her escape.

‘A weekly chance to create a world of wonder, deck the garage out in whatever the movie calls for and spend a few uninterrupted hours with Noa – her best friend and one of the few mates who still shows up.
‘But tonight, things are different. Noa’s got big news. A dream job is taking him across the other side of the country, which means that all of this is ending. That reality is hitting.
‘That they’re going to be forced to consider for the first time they might be more than just friends. Neither of them are the best when it comes to emotions but this time those emotions might be impossible to ignore.’
It continues: ‘As if life weren’t challenging enough already, Evie is going to be navigating this amongst the eccentricity of her family home – living with her fiercely loving single mum Suz, sister Izzie, and handsome boyfriend/sometime man of the house Josh.
‘Film Club is a witty and emotional show about love and family, about whether we should follow our hearts or heads, and being in love with a friend.’
Speaking about the series, co-creator and star Aimee said: ‘I’m thrilled that our beloved TV series Film Club, a project that Ralph and I have been writing for the past decade, starts shooting this week.
‘We couldn’t be more excited, and grateful, to the incredible team we have assembled with the BBC.

‘To bring this to life with Nabhaan and Suranne, two exceptional actors I have always admired, is a real honour.’
While Suranne gushed of Aimee: ‘I’ve loved Aimee for a while now and think she is a beautifully real, honest and brilliantly funny talent, so it was no surprise the script she and Ralph Davis have created was the same.
‘It’s smart, sweet and punchy. I can’t wait to be her tiger mum… and I get to film in my home town too.’
Film Club will air next year on BBC iPlayer and BBC Three.
