While Lovering, who recently appeared in Amazon Prime’s Class of ’07 and Walker, who is first and foremost a comedian, take a large portion of the spotlight, it’s hard to get passed the cast of colourful characters who join them. ABC The supporting cast ties the whole show together “I just had this kind of yearning to kind of protect her and be affectionate towards her…you just can’t help but want to look after her.”ĭanielle Walker and Claire Lovering in ABC’s Gold Diggers.

“I feel very affectionate towards her, which I did from our first chemistry read,” Lovering said. But our dynamic was never the work.”ĭuring the same interview, Lovering, whose official character bio depicts her as the “oldest daughter of an alcoholic ex-nun and a travelling salesman” (among many other epic attributes), admitted that she looked at her co-star like a “little sister”. “It never felt like it was work for the chemistry, like all the other work we had to do. “I think sometimes you just meet somebody and sort of click,” Walker said in an interview on Mediaweek and Chattr’s The Entertainment Hotline Podcast. While at first glance, you may think this was another period piece, the first two lines delivered by Lovering and Walker will prove you otherwise and from the get-go, their on-screen chemistry is notable.

Gert Brewer (Lovering), a headstrong party animal and her blissfully naïve sister, Marigold Brewer (Walker), are willing to do anything to secure their fortune and safety but must first conquer the lads and lechery of the Australian Gold Rush, whilst also having a bloody good time! The new series, which premieres on July 5 at 9.00 pm on ABC and ABC iView, follows the wildly optimistic Brewer Sisters in 1853 Australia, who set out to get lucky in the lice-infested town of Dead Horse Gap. ABC’s new offering Gold Diggers is a laugh-out-loud comedy with bite and its two Aussie female leads, Claire Lovering and Danielle Walker, both in their first lead roles, steal the show.
