Ella Purnell teases Lucy’s dark turn in ‘Fallout’ season 2
Ella Purnell says fans of Fallout will see a shocking new side of Lucy MacLean in Season 2.
Speaking with Deadline about the episode titled The Demon in the Snow, now streaming on Prime Video, Purnell revealed she loved getting to explore Lucy’s more dangerous side during a drug-fueled sequence that temporarily removes the character’s fear of violence.
“I couldn’t believe it. I felt so scandalous. Coming from any other character, you’d be like, ‘Yeah, it’s just Fallout,’ but just something about it being Lucy, it feels scandalous. I couldn’t believe it. It’s like when you’re like little sister goes out and gets a little wild—it’s crazy,” she said.
“Very fun to see that side of her, to play that side of her, and also, a new experience for me. I haven’t done that a lot in my career. I didn’t know how it was gonna turn out. It turned out good, thank God, I think.”
Lucy’s violent shift happens after she receives a life-saving Buffout steroid drip following a near-death experience in the previous episode. Under the drug’s influence, her usual moral compass disappears, leading to a deadly — and comedic — killing spree.
“But yeah, very fun to play a side of Lucy that is fearless for once,” Purnell added. “But to play a character who truly doesn’t conceive the notion of death for just five minutes of the day… it changes all the tension in the scene… and I get to play with some comedy in there, it was really fun.”
Purnell also addressed switching between Lucy and her other role, serial killer Rhiannon Lewis in Sweetpea.
“It’s a weird switch to make actually,” she said. “I’m like, ‘Rhiannon would do that in a heartbeat.’”

Kelly Osbourne attends BRITs with mom Sharon as late dad Ozzy is honoured
Kelly Osbourne walked the BRITs red carpet with her mom Sharon Osbourne on Saturday, February 28, where her late father Ozzy Osbourne will be honoured for his lasting legacy.
The 41-year-old singer and actress appeared at the ceremony in matching black outfits at the Co-Op Live in Manchester.
Kelly donned a strapless dress with a fur coat over her shoulders, while Sharon sported a tuxedo-style frock with a bowtie draped untied from her neck.
The British award show will present the Black Sabbath frontman with a Lifetime Achievement Award posthumously, for his legendary contribution to Rock music.
Kelly and Sharon’s red carpet outing comes after the Prince of Darkness’ daughter addressed harsh comments about her recent drastic weight loss.
Kelly took to social media and shared an Instagram Story, which read, “Literally can’t believe how disgusting some human beings truly are. No one deserves this sort of abuse! This too shall pass, but like, holy f—.”
The social media story in February was not the first time she addressed her weight loss comments. Previously in December, she made a video saying, “I’m just here to say, what do you expect from me? What do you expect me to look like right now? The fact that I’m getting out of bed and facing my life and trying to be more than enough, I should be commended for that.”

Al Jazeera broadcast interrupted by emergency missile alert in Qatar
Al Jazeera English’s live broadcast was interrupted by an emergency missile alert following Iran’s retaliatory strikes on U.S. bases in the Middle East.
The media outlet shared the video of the incident on TikTok, which quickly went viral, amassing over 12 million views in just a few hours.
The 42-second video clip shows a guest speaking with anchor Folly Bah Thibault when their conversation suddenly gets interrupted by buzzer alarm sounds.
Folly explained that it was the emergency alert residents in Doha receive on their phones during urgent situations.
She added, “The national emergency alert system has gone off here in Qatar,” and quoted the Qatar Defence Ministry, stating that an Iranian missile had been intercepted.
This comes after Iran retaliated against the U.S.-Israel strikes dubbed Operation Epic Fury by the U.S. and Operation Roaring Lion by Israel.
Iran launched barrages of missiles at the U.S. bases across the Middle East, including in Qatar, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates (UAE), Kuwait, and Jordan.
Netizens praised the anchor for keeping her composure in an emergency situation. One user commented, “The interviewer lady is so professional, she’s the best.” Another said, “How is she so calm?”
A third user expressed disbelief, writing, “I cannot believe this is happening. It is terrifying.”

Govt increases petrol price by Rs8 per litre for next fortnight
- Petroleum Division notifies new prices.
- Petrol price set at Rs266.17 per litre.
- Diesel raised by Rs5.16 to Rs280.86 per litre.
The federal government increased the price of petrol by Rs8 per litre for the next fortnight, starting from March 1.
In a notification, the Petroleum Division announced that the price of petrol has been increased to Rs266.17 per litre, up from Rs258.17.
Similarly, the price of diesel has been raised by Rs5.16 to Rs280.86 per litre, compared with the previous rate of Rs275.7.
Petrol is mainly used by commuters in small vehicles, rickshaws and two-wheelers. Higher fuel prices significantly impact the budgets of middle and lower-middle class households, who rely on petrol for daily travel.
On the other hand, a significant portion of the transport sector relies on high-speed diesel.
Its price is considered inflationary since it is predominantly used in heavy goods transport vehicles, trucks, buses, trains, and agricultural machinery such as tractors, tube wells, and threshers.
The consumption of high-speed diesel particularly contributes to the increased prices of vegetables and other food items.
