Hotel
Babylon
Following
the departure of Babylon's General Manager, Rebecca, Deputy Manager
Charlie (Max Beesley) steps up as the hit BBC One drama Hotel Babylon
– a tantalising and seductive insight into the sexy world of the
luxury five-star hotel industry – checks in for series three.
Just as driven and ambitious as his predecessor, Charlie
is determined to make his mark and ensure the hotel's standards and
profits are at an optimum. However, running a tight ship and hitting
targets come at a price and Charlie soon learns that as General Manager
his decisions aren't always going to be popular with the Babylon employees.
Inspired
by Imogen Edwards-Jones's searing exposé of life behind the scenes
of London's luxury hotel industry, Hotel Babylon takes viewers
on a journey beyond the glamour and facade of the smiling faces and
glittering chandeliers, and into the frenetic, non-stop world of the
staff.
Edwards-Jones' book was written with help from an anonymous
source – the manager of a five-star central London hotel with
many years' experience working in almost all of the capital's luxury
hotels.
Checking in for the new series are: John Barrowman,
Kwame Kwei-Armah, Megan Dodds, Anita Dobson, Jeremy Sheffield, Alan
Davies, Paula Abdul, Nicola Stephenson, Lesley Garrett, Lee Sharpe,
Mark Bannerman, Donna Air, James Lance, Don Gilet, Jon Culshaw and Samantha
Bond, among others.
As well
as the regular cast, Hotel Babylon welcomes new employees Alexandra
Moen as PR superwhizz Emily James, who promises to shake things up a
bit; and Lee Williams as Charlie's new right-hand man and deputy manager,
Jack.
Max Beesley returns as charismatic Charlie Edwards,
stepping into the role of General Manager.
He is joined by Dexter Fletcher, who plays concierge
Tony; Emma Pierson, who plays foxy head receptionist Anna; Natalie Mendoza,
who plays Jackie, the sexy head of housekeeping; Michael Obiora, who
plays bitchy receptionist Ben; Martin Marquez as charming head barman
Gino; and Ray Coulthard, who plays stiff-upper-lipped food and beverage
manager James.
