Actress Helen Behan has four kids, and works as a nurse.
But Helen has always wanted to try her hand at acting.
After a chance meeting with a famous English TV Director in a pub in Meath when he was on holidays Helen blagged her way into a role in one of his shows.
She continued to work her way up the ladder and last year in 2019, Helen was on a new Channel 4 show called The Virtues starring alongside Stephen Graham to rave reviews yet again.
The most incredible part of this story is that Helen was still nursing here in Ireland.
Last month Helen was on with The Ian Dempsey Breakfast Show because she only went and got nominated for Best Supporting Actress at the BAFTAS!
When she got the news, she was working as a nurse in the Covid Assessment Unit in Drogheda.
The BAFTA’s are on tonight with all nominees standing by at home and Helen told us about what she’s wearing tonight, where she’s watching it, and who her competition is.
