“Lots and lots of warm clothes for me today, I’ve had roll necks and coats and boots and fingerless gloves! Seeing Alison Steadman [OBE] again was absolutely lovely, she played my mother in a drama we did together. Jessica Hynes is so funny and brilliant, and I watched The Traitors so seeing the series four cast was really gorgeous and they were all wonderful and warm – it’s been a really light and happy set.” – Anna Friel
