Oh, hi! It’s been a while. Sorry for the silence. I’ve been busy with The Screenster Podcast 🎤 Make sure you catch up on previous episodes where I’ve chatted to some great guests in the film and television world (I don’t think I’m exaggerating…!?). Here are a few examples; Acting with Shannyn Sossamon (from A Knight’s Tale!), Acting and Mean Girls with Daniel Franzese (AKA…
I first heard about director Jamie Patterson’s work through actor April Pearson. April joined me on The Screenster Podcast for a chat last year and we’ve kept in touch, since. So, when she recently mentioned Justine, Jamie’s latest film, I thought I should have a watch. Full disclosure, though; it’s been a battle to get me to sit down with anything other than…
Today we can all, with total certainty, say that it’s Groundhog Day. Because it actually is. February 2nd marks the popular tradition in the United States and Canada where a cute rodent predicts the weather (with mixed levels of accuracy). The day made famous by the film starring Bill Murray (and Roland Schitt). The day that casually became another way of saying; ‘OK,…
Kelly Valentine Hendry is a Casting Director who has cast Actors in some of your favourite shows; from ‘Bridgerton’ to ‘Gangs of London’, ‘Fleabag’ to ‘Broadchurch’. Kelly sat down with me (over Zoom…obviously) for a chat on The Screenster Podcast. ‘Bridgerton’ stole our hearts this Christmas (and beyond) and it’s just been announced that a second season is on the horizon! On the…
Actor Fiona Button joined me (remotely!) for a round of questions about the shows she has starred in, how she got into the industry and what she’s watching at the moment. You are playing Lucy in the new BBC show ‘Out of Her Mind’. What was it like working on the show? It was a lovely experience. I loved working…
The brilliant ‘Sorry, I Didn’t Know’ is a new panel show on ITV about Black History. I sat down (/obviously Zoomed) with the show’s Co-Creators, Minnie and Fraser Ayres, who, alongside Jimmy Akingbola, founded TriForce Creative Network – the company behind the programme. Last year, I got the chance to work with TriForce and perform at one of their events, ‘Monologue Slam’ (I wrote…
Me, Myself & I
Welcome to Screenster. I’m Georgie and I’m interested in the TV shows and films that entertain, make you laugh, keep you company and remind us that there are still lots of jobs out there for actors. I’m an actor myself and I needed something that stopped me from twiddling my thumbs and, well, pulling my hair out when I’m not working. Follow me on @screensteruk. Nice to meet you.
Acting Work
You can find out more about my acting work here. I also now host The Screenster Podcast, a TV and film podcast which looks at the nuts and bolts of this industry. Each week, I chat to different people in the business – from producers to location caterers and script supervisors. We chew the fat on everything from mental health to what they’re watching.
