Chicken Soap for the Soul with Elisabeth Dermot Walsh and Special Guest Carli Norris
On this week’s episode of Chicken Soap for the Soul, we are joined by the very funny, Rada trained and prolifically talented actor, Carli Norris. Carli has not only had regular roles in no less than four different soaps, she also appeared in classical theatre, comedies, cop shows and even Panto.
Elisabeth and Carli talk about being a National Treasure (at least in King Charles’ books), lying on your cv and learning the full role of Elisa Doolittle in one weekend. Plus, there’s that merkin story. Hold on to your teacups; we’re afraid this is not a very ‘clean’ episode...
Carli is currently starring in the hilarious and heartfelt Menopause The Musical 2, which is still touring until June 1st. Please go see it, it’s brilliant. For more information and tickets, visit https://musicalsontour.co.uk/menopause-the-musical-2/

Chicken Soap for the Soul with Elisabeth Dermot Walsh and Special Guest Claire Bennett
On this week’s episode of Chicken Soap for the Soul, we are joined by the woman whose name has been mentioned on the podcast more than anyone else's: award winning writer, Claire Bennett. Claire started writing on BBC Doctors in the second season and stayed until the very end. She is a powerhouse of prose, with a great ear for dialogue and a nose for gripping storylines and engaging characters.
Elisabeth and Claire talk about the joy of twisting stereotypes, surviving convent school, bringing Brummie voices on the screen and fighting the anti-woke brigade. Claire also -kind of- manages not to swear.

Chicken Soap for the Soul with Elisabeth Dermot Walsh and Special Guest Joanna Bending
On this week’s episode of Chicken Soap for the Soul, we are joined by the very lovely and brilliantly talented Joanna Bending. A RADA graduate with a rich stage career under her belt, Joanna was nominated for Best Solo Performer at the 2012 Stage Awards for her powerful one-woman show. On screen, she’s popped up in everything from EastEnders and Holby City to The Sarah Jane Adventures, and of course, as Dr. Michelle Walton on BBC Doctors.
Elisabeth and Joanna reminisce about their days as students at RADA, swap memories of their time on Doctors, and dive into Joanna’s fascinating family (spoiler: her dad’s an actual doctor). They also chat about the highs and challenges of doing a one-woman show in London, and what it’s really like filming stints on some of the UK's best-loved TV dramas.
