The Birdsong actress played Eva Coupeau for four episodes of The CW's teen drama between filming roles in Danny Boyle's 127 Hours and French film The Silence of Joan (Jeanne Captive).

"[I thought] 'It's going to be nice to have something light in between'," she told The Daily Telegraph.

"But sometimes you take decisions and then you're like, 'What?' I just wondered why I was there. I should have thought it through a bit before."

She added of growing up to a theatre director father and teacher mother in a house without television: "They've always taught us to choose what we were going to see - hence no TV at home when we were kids. Because TV imposes something on you."

Poésy recently told Digital Spy that new BBC Sebastian Faulks adaptation Birdsong is "a brilliant story about the two extremes of life".
