Here’s your second scrubbing of Soap From The Box this week to cheer us all up during lockdown. 

In this episode Lee talks to Chelsea Halfpenny, who played Amy Wyatt in Emmerdale and Alicia Munroe in Casualty. 

Amongst the many giggles, the chat covers Chelsea’s FIVE auditions to get the part in Emmerdale, the story behind the character being recast and why she didn’t go back, plus her time on Casualty and not going to France for a 2 part French special!

PLUS would she ever do Strictly? What are TV Awards like? How did Hypnotherapy help her cope with Imposter Syndrome? And how do you deal with a bleeding nose on stage? 

Chelsea & Lee do discuss the rape storyline experienced by Chelsea’s character in Casualty.  If you have been affected by issues like this, you can find some information and support here:
