With Guest Stirling Gallacher

Chicken Soap for the Soul with Elisabeth Dermot Walsh and Special Guest Stirling GallacherOn this week’s episode of Chicken Soap for the Soul, Elisabeth is joined by the redoubtable (or in her own words, ‘clownsy actress’) Stirling Gallacher, best known to Doctors fans as the compassionate and clear-eyed Dr. George Woodson, a role she played for over 1,000 episodes. Stirling graced just about every major British soap, from EastEnders to Coronation Street and from Emmerdale to Casualty. But before all that, Stirling’s roots were in comedy, notably playing David Brent’s boss in The Office.Elisabeth and Stirling talk about navigating motherhood with a baby on set, being told she was "too posh" to play George Woodson, the overwhelming love she received from fans for portraying Coronation Street’s first bisexual woman and the absolute impossibility of staying composed around Ricky Gervais. New CSFTS News! You can now join us on Facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/chickensoappodcast/Signup for the Chicken Soap News at chickensoapforthesoul.comYou can email us at: [email protected] the podcast and Elisabeth at instagram.com/chickensoappodcast and instagram.com/elisabethdermotwalshFor more information on Brum Radio Podcasts follow Brum Radio on instagram.com/brumradioChicken Soup For the Soul is produced by Brum Radio and is recorded at Birmingham Podcast Studios in Birmingham, United Kingdom.Follow the Brum Radio Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brumradio  Hosted on Acast.
