This continues her ever-successful relationship with the BBC following her lead role in LIFE AND DEATH IN THE WAREHOUSE for BBC Three which is up for an International Emmy. She can also be seen playing ‘Lydia’ in the second series of BAFTA-Cymru Award-winning IN MY SKIN on BBC Two and the adaptation of Kit de Waal’s debut novel MY NAME IS LEON for BBC One.
