Picture this...Emily as bombshell Debbie

- By Dominique Hines

WITH tousled bleached-blonde bob, pillar-box red lipstick and sultry gaze, she is unrecognis­able from her stint on I’m A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here.

For Emily Atack’s latest role is as Seventies pop icon Debbie Harry. Miss Atack, 29, plays the Blondie singer in a new series of the Sky Arts comedy show Urban Myths, which examines episodes from showbusine­ss folklore.

The actress, best known for playing Charlotte Hinchcliff­e in The Inbetweene­rs, shared an image of herself as Miss Harry on her Instagram page.

Her pose, in a white dress, recreates a record sleeve similar to the cover for Blondie’s famous 1978 album Parallel Lines, which featured hits such as Picture This, Sunday Girl and Heart Of Glass.

She is not a main character in the episode of Urban Myths. It centres on the singer Grace Jones.
