Episode description

You might know Siobhán McSweeney from Derry Girls, The Great Pottery Throw Down, Amandaland, Ru Paul's Drag Race or (soon) Traitors Ireland... Basically, she's bloody everywhere and now she's added the Before The Lights podcast to that illustrious list of career highlights.


In this discussion about her time on and off screen Siobhán explores her route to success, being "so proud" of herself after recovering from a life-changing injury and entertainment's role in creating stereotypes of who "is allowed to be in love" on screen.


She tells us about the cast of Derry Girls had "no idea" the show would be such a big success, and absolutely NOTHING about the upcoming series of Traitors Ireland.
