This week’s guest is the actress, Sophie Rundle. Her career began with a bang – when she landed the role of Ada Shelby in the hit-drama Peaky Blinders, straight out of drama school. Since then, she’s gone on to star in Sally Wainwright’s Gentleman Jack, Alibi’s The Diplomat and most recently ITV’s, After the Flood. In this episode, she talks to Kelly-Anne Taylor about how revolutionary Gentleman Jack was in depicting LGBTQ+ love stories and how it has been heralded for its portrayal of sex scenes. Rundle discusses her own experience filming intimate scenes – and how they have changed over the course of her career. Plus, she reveals how Peaky Blinders changed her life – and, the pressure she faces to look a certain way on screen.
