Written by Brenda on July 12th, 2007
In an interview with Michelle Ryan the new star of the remake of the 70’s classic Bionic Woman, recalls some times of tension on the set of really her break through role on EastEnders. Michelle had this to say about her time on the show.
“Like any job, you’re not going to get on with every single person who works there,” says Ryan. “I think because there was so much press interest in EastEnders there was some tension. I’m not going to say it was a happy family all the time. It wasn’t. I did make some brilliant friends, though.”
Why was there tension? “It was partly people trying to get into the limelight,” says Ryan. “And partly because people were having stories sold about them the whole time. There were quite a lot of leaks at EastEnders - different people selling stories to newspapers. In the end, I was like: ‘Who can I trust?’”
