This week on the Podcast I'm talking to television actress Corrinne Wicks. Corrinne shot to fame in BBC One’s flagship drama Doctors playing ‘Dr. Helen Thompson’ for over five years. She went on to appear as ‘Ella Heart’ in ITV’s Prime time soap Emmerdale, receiving two best actress nominations during her time on the show.
Corrinne has also appeared in two films that I have directed, You Might Get Lost and The Apocalypse Box. And with The Apocalypse Box out now I wanted to talk to Corrinne about her Career and also chat about her role in the new film.
