Jayne and I discuss her early years in the business, from leaving drama school after her first year when she landed the role of Johanna in Burton’s Sweeney Todd. To still being heckled in the streets with “feisty one you are” from her appearance in The Inbetweeners! 


A great chat for many reasons, one of which being, you don’t have to follow the ‘typical’ route into the industry, via drama school for example, in order to have a successful career. 


Thank you Jayne!
