Nightsleeper

There’s very few things more gripping and exciting to consume, than a real-time thriller. But while so much of that sentiment is coming from the perspective of a viewer, what about the sort of challenges and enjoyment that actors get from taking part? Well that is exactly what we found out, when we had the pleasure in speaking to talented Welsh actor Alexandra Roach, as she pulls back the curtain on her experience shooting the compelling BBC series Nightsleeper.

She discusses shooting in this unique format, acting on the “telephone” and on collaborating with Joe Cole, who also shines in this production.
