Midwich Cuckoos

Keeley Hawes is without doubt one of the finest performers working today, and we were thrilled to have the opportunity to interview her, alongside up & coming star Synnøve Karlsen, for their sci-fi series The Midwich Cuckoos.

The duo, who play mother and daughter, discuss their approach to the material and themes at hand, and talk about their collaboration process, as they both learnt so much from the other. This also leads into a conversation about Nandos – because why not.

Watch the full interview with Keeley Hawes & Synnøve Karlsen below:
