In this episode we chat to actor and friend April Pearson!

April played Michelle in 2007 hit TV series Skins, and became something of a symbol of noughties teenage rebellion.

We talk about what it's like to be best known for your first acting role, body-shaming in the entertainment industry and the dark side of intimacy on-screen. Please bear in mind that this episode is intended for adults and might not be suitable for all listeners.

We were lucky enough to be guests on April's podcast 'Are You Michelle from Skins?' last year, and it's back for a new season! Subscribe now: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/are-you-michelle-from-skins/id1563027140
