TV Review. Walking and Talking by Kathy Burke. amazon
What a seeming simple show until you realise that all the streetscapes are actually sets and that there is strict structure to the narrative
A short autobiographical series by Kathy Burke of her teen years growing up in Islington, the people in her life, the places, her dreams and how she starts on the road to theatre, writing and acting.Each episode opens with her in her bedroom talking about the artistic influences in her life, the music, the movies, the books, ( including Ulysses ๐ ) . All the working class heroes in the arts who inspired her.
And then it's her and her fave mate Mary walking home from school, the people they meet, the places, the little adventures, learning about life.
Nice little cameo as a nun who teaches at her school. They did her up as a man dressed up as a woman dressed as a nun.
4 Hobbits but then I'm biased as I love everything she does
