Acting role

I haven’t done any acting for literally ages and have really missed performing.  And then suddenly out of the blue I get a casting call for Doctors – a daytime soap on BBC TV.  I got the part, which was a character very similar to the one I play in another BBC soap – The Archers; ‘a drunken trouble-maker’.  So I spent a couple of days filming and loved every second of it.  Great feedback from the production team and then back to earth and back to work at the care homes!  Dunno why my acting career suddenly stalled; I used to get regular work on BBC Radio Drama and theatres all over the country, and that little taste of what I love doing has made me hope that there may be other roles out there…  Guess I should be a little more proactive, but I’m not great at networking or being dynamic.  By the way, my episode is on the telly 4^th June 2015 on BBC1 at 1.45 if you wanna check it.
