SINCE Lily Allen quit her pop career, there seems to be no end to her other talents.

Not only did she wow fans with her acting in West End play Ghost Story, she also made a good impression in Sky drama Dreamland.

Now Lily has taken a dystopian Netflix show and – in the unlikeliest reimagining ever – turned it into a musical.

Today on BBC Radio, she said: “I wrote the musical for Bridget Jones’s Diary and that hasn’t happened yet – maybe one day it still will.

“I also did an adaptation of an episode of Black Mirror for the stage which has also been sold to someone, it’s just not happened yet, but the music’s finished.”

On Dreamland, Lily added: “There’s definitely conversations about doing a second series.”

Lily is married to David Harbour, 47, — cop Jim Hopper in Netflix blockbuster Stranger Things.

The Smile singer, who has daughters aged nine and ten, wed the US actor in 2020.

They were married in a Las Vegas ceremony officiated by an Elvis Presley impersonator.

She wants to have children with Harbour, too.

She said: “I miss little terrors running around the house.”

Lily only recently discovered she has adult ADHD, telling The Times: “It sort of runs in my family.

“And it's only because I'm here in America where they take these things slightly more seriously than they do in England.”

There is no cure and what causes ADHD is also unknown.
