Interview with Jill Halfpenny
Interview with Jill Halfpenny, who plays Diane Manning in BBC One drama In The Club.
Working with a strong female cast was a joy and it was lovely to all get together to watch episode one at the screening.
Diane has quite a few surprises in store as she reaches the end of her miracle pregnancy….
Diane is horrified at news of Rick’s redundancy. Besides all the obvious worries of money and babies, she really didn't think that Rick was capable of such lies.
Does the parent craft group that she meets provide a support network to her?
Yes definitely. Diane relies heavily on her friends at Parent craft. They keep her sane.
Who does she turn to as events begin to unfold?
All of the women are close but Diane and Roanna are particularly so.
Was wearing a prosthetic bump reminiscent of your own pregnancy?
Yes the bump did remind me of my own pregnancy, but it was definitely lighter!
How was the experience of working with such a strong female cast? How was it getting together with the cast to watch episode one together?
Working with a strong female cast was a joy and it was lovely to all get together to watch episode one at the screening. We worked hard and we want everyone to love it.
