Saoirse-Monica Jackson, known for her work in Derry Girls, enjoyed the lighter atmosphere on the set of BBC's crime drama This City Is Ours with its many Scousers and creative camaraderie. While the show features serious themes such as betrayal and violence with Sean Bean as a drug boss, Jackson's character, Cheryl Crawford, adds depth with her warnings about the dangers of their lifestyle. Her experience living in Liverpool helped her embody the local culture, enhanced by her role's glamorous presentation, which contrasts with the show's darker narrative.
Every occasion is an occasion to really get dolled up. The portrayal of Cheryl in This City Is Ours reflects the pride Liverpool women take in their appearance.
Jackson explains how theatre offers unique challenges: You're not working it through together. The idea of being present on stage is both scary and rewarding.
