Episode 210: Natasha Burnett

Natasha Burnett plays Minnie Canfield, matriarch of the Canfield family, on Hallmark Channel’s When Calls The Heart. The Canfields joined the wildly popular family drama for its eighth season; over the course of 12 episodes, Minnie was revealed to be loving, fiercely protective, and level-headed – and fans, known far beyond their fandom as the Hearties, embraced Minnie and all of the Canfields, who also happened to be the first Black family to be featured on the long-running show. So that’s Minnie Canfield. But who is Natasha Burnett?In this delightful interview, Natasha reflects on her winding journey to Minnie and When Calls The Heart: from her childhood growing up in England, to her time in beauty school, to her six years as Diana Ross and young Michael Jackson in a touring Motown tribute show, and, ultimately, to Hope Valley. Also included: a particularly rousing round of Favourite Things!Episode Sponsor: Fish Flight Entertainment
