TELL Me Everything is ITV’s latest must-see teen drama.
The six-part series follows a group of youngsters as they navigate their way through life – and all the up’s and downs that come with being a teenager.
Tell Me Everything tells the story of six teenagers growing up in Britain
Who is in the cast of Tell Me Everything?
Eden H Davies
Eden H Davies plays Jonny Murphy
Eden H Davies, 18, plays Jonny Murphy in the coming of age drama.
His character is the life and soul of the party – confident, funny and daring – just what you’d expect.
However, behind his charismatic personality is a young teen struggling with his mental health.
Having suffered an undiagnosed bout of depression over the summer holidays, Johnny struggles to confide in his closest friends – so instead turns to online forums to express his darkest feelings.
And for Eden, this is his first ever TV role.
The rising star attended the National Youth Theatre from the age
of 14 – and it was there he heard about the new ITVX drama.
Eden said: ”I had just started looking properly for jobs when this perfect opportunity came along. It was fate and because I’ve been training for a while, I felt I was ready to take this.”
Speaking on the importance of the show, Eden added: ”I think that portraying mental health accurately and responsibly and in a real-world situation is very important.
”Sometimes it can be told in these big, fanciful ways or glamourised and it’s not that. What Tell Me Everything does so well – and I think it helps because it’s British – is we really portray everyday life honestly.
”That’s what makes it more powerful. It’s so important for people who are going through similar situations to understand that other people are too and that it will get better.
”It’s also important for people who aren’t going through it to
know that others are and to have a better understanding of the process and what to look out for.”

Canadian actress Callina Liang stars as Mei.
Mei’s story see’s the young teen arrive in Welwyn Garden City – and with her arrival comes a brand new rebellious identity.
Callina’s character forges a strong connection with Jonny and the pair become intoxicated with each other – however, their bond is built of secrets unbeknown to Jonny.
Callina Liang holds a Diploma in Performance from the LASALLE College of Arts and was named a ‘Top of the World’ recipient for IGCSE Drama 2016.
Prior to her TV debut on Tell Me Everything, the young actress has taken on various stage roles and has played leading roles in a number of short films.
Speaking about her character, Callina said: ”She’s so strong and for a young girl going through everything that she is going through, I actually respect her so much.
”She doesn’t take anything from anyone. She’s so feisty. She doesn’t care what people think. These are things that I struggled with when I was growing up.
”I was always so conscious of what people thought about me. I had a really great support system. I had my friends whereas Mei doesn’t
have anyone. I can’t even begin to imagine how she does it. So I have a lot of respect for her. She’s so strong. And smart.”
Lauryn Ajufo
Lauryn Ajufo made her acting debut in the award-winning film Boiling Point
Rising star Lauryn Ajufo plays Neve – one of Jonny’s closest and oldest friends.
Neve’s storyline see’s the young teen navigate through life while living in the shadow of her older sister, Timmi.
The young actress may be in the early stages of her career – but she has definitely started to make her mark in the world of acting.
Her first big break was in the award-winning film Boiling Point – and ever since she’s found her self landing roles on screen.
Lauryn is also set to star in a number of upcoming screenings, including Accused, Netflix’s The F**k it Bucket and Luther.
Speaking on her time on Tell Me Everything and what she is most proud of, Lauryn said: ”The rawness of it. The stories we are telling with identity crisis and sexuality and mental health.
”I think all of that is so important. When this comes out there is a story for everyone, which isn’t always the case. But with this show I think that is what we’ve done.”
Spike Fearn
Spike Fearn plays Louis
Actor Spike Fearn has landed a role in the ITVX drama as Louis.
His character is smart, good looking and comes from a wealthy family – but looks can be decieving.
The teen may appear not to have any worries in the world, but hiding behind his care-free personality is a teenage boy struggling with social anxiety.
And this isn’t the first time the young actor has landed an ITV role – he has also appeared in the 2019 television drama Wild Bill.
Aside from his ITV castings, Spike has also starred in a number of other TV and Film productions, including Newark, Newark, Never Let Me Go, Aftersun and The Batman.
When asked why people should watch Tell Me Everything, Spike explained: ”It’s raw. It’s very real. It tells what life really is like growing up and going to college. The whole social media thing is great as well. As well as being funny it’s got drama in there. It makes you feel happy. It makes you feel sad. It’s everything a series should have. It’s great TV.”
Carla Woodcock
Actress Carla Woodcock starred in season four of Ackley Bridge
Carla Woodcock plays Tell Me Everything’s social media star Zia.
The blonde and beautiful teen is that girl at college who everybody either wants to be best friends with or go out with – but like any teenager, Zia has her insecurities.
Aside from Tell Me Everything, the young star made her acting debut as Susie Garrett on the Netflix series Free Rein.
She was then cast as Marina Perry on the fourth season of the Channel 4 series Ackley Bridge in 2021.
Discussing her role as Zia, Carla said: ”What intrigued me about Zia was she could be seen as the ‘popular girl’ and ‘cool girl’ but she doesn’t have that catty energy that is so often done in those types of roles, especially with teen dramas.
”Zia is very emotionally mature. She doesn’t lash out with her insecurities or try to put anyone down. She’s a girl’s girl, supporting people and uplifting people, which is really nice to play.”
Tessa Lucille
Tessa Lucille stars as Regan
Actress Tessa Lucille is the final cast member to join the teen drama.
She plays Regan – Zia’s fun and free spirited best friend, but like all of them, there’s more to her life than first meets the eye.
And just like some of her co-stars, Tessa is a rising star in the industry making her TV debut on Tell Me Everything.
When asked what she hopes viewers will take away from the show, Tessa said: ”I hope that people take away from it the value of good friendships. There’s a lot of really lovely friendships in the show and it’s important to know that even though you can be going through your own stuff you can have good friends and they will be there for you and support you through it.
”You get that proven to you constantly in the show. It’s ok to just chat to your friends.”
