From her breakout role as Beth in cult drama No Angels to becoming one of television’s most recognisable soap stars as Tanya Branning in EastEnders, Jo reflects on the highs and challenges of life on screen. She shares behind-the-scenes stories from No Angels, Shakespeare & Hathaway, and EastEnders, including the unforgettable moment when she first met the legendary Barbara Windsor. Jo and Sally also look back on their experiences navigating fame and the many times they’ve been mistaken for each other by fans. They also swap audition stories from their early acting days in Manchester, looking back on the chaos and rejection that came with trying to break into the industry. The conversation also turns to family life, motherhood, and the balance of a demanding acting career while raising twins. Jo speaks candidly about turning down jobs to put family first, returning to work as a new mum, and how her views on success and ambition have changed over the years.
