SPOTLIGHT ON….The Real Jill
Jill Nalder has had a distinguished and wide-ranging stage career, but I guess nothing could have prepared her for the amazing AIDS-era tv series It’s A Sin , where she plays opposite a fellow actor who is playing Jill’s younger self .And creator Russell T Davies adds another spin – Jill plays tv Jill’s mother in the Channel 4 series . How was that I ask her – coming face to face with her younger self played by Lydia West ? “ It was very surreal – more so off the set in discussions rather than during the filming.
