In Autumn 2025, a TV production company called Particle 6, caused a bit of a storm by launching Tilly Norwood into the world. Young, attractive, eloquent? Tilly could be the acting world’s hot new thing. Tilly is an AI, and the industry wasn’t happy. 

Prof Dave and `Steph meet Eline van der Velden, the creator of Tilly Norwood, to find out what it was like dealing with that reaction, where the TV and film industry is heading, and what the plans are for Tilly and the 'Tillyverse' now.
