Marley:
At first I really wasn't sure how to play Marley, I didn't know whether she was nice, unkind, chav style, polite or what her voice was like. I would say I am a well spoken person most of the time and I felt like I needed to bring that down in this scene with Michael.
After a few times of us doing the scene in front of Ella, she felt like I needed to come across as if I'm almost about to reach out to the character of Danny, but he almost pushes me away even though in other scenes it comes across that Marley is all he wants. We added him holding my hands at the end when he asks me to go back inside.
So when I first started playing Marley, I was playing her as if she was really cold towards Danny, with slight concern but she doesn't really care. Some of my lines came across like she was teasing Danny, so I played with that. Eventually I started to play her a little less cold, bit numb towards Danny, but also showing concern for him, and showing that I still care even if he is really unwell.
Working with Michael was great, I felt we created a great connection with the relationships of the characters.
