Derry Girls' Saoirse-Monica Jackson has never been wowed by sushi! | Dish Podcast | Waitrose
Nick and Angela welcome an OG Derry girl to Dish HQ.
Saoirse-Monica Jackson grew up in Northern Ireland and studied acting at the Arden School of Theatre in Manchester. She is best known and loved for her portrayal of Erin Quinn in the Emmy award-winning series Derry Girls. Over three seasons the 90s-set comedy became the most popular show on Channel 4 and is now a hit with a global audience on Netflix. It wasn’t long before Hollywood came knocking and Saoirse won a role in the DC superhero movie The Flash. She is currently starring in period drama The Doll Factory on Paramount+ and later in the year will also appear in The Decameron, based on Giovanni Boccaccio’s 14th-century collection of comic short stories.
Nick kicks off proceedings with a bottle of the Waitrose loved & found Nerello Mascalese rosé while Angela puts the finishing touches to the best lasagne; a recipe by Martha Collison. As our trio tuck into their meal, they enjoy a delicious glass of the Waitrose loved & found Lacrima and discuss the pitfalls of planning a birthday party, Saoirse-Monica’s favourite snacks and Derry Girls the Movie.

The kids in leather jackets comment literally has me crying with laughter 😂😂😂
It suonds like something that Philomena Cunk would say 😅
😂😂 same watched it so many times!
She just a breath of fresh air, could listen to her all day. I've been up since 6 and this is my 3rd job today 😂😂so funny.
Festive gooch went unnoticed and underrated
Is that Irish slang for something?
@@frolickinglionsit’s not Irish slang but it’s more commonly referred to as “Christmas gooch” and it means the week between Christmas and New Year
"Like a wEe trActOr."😂
'Liverpool--it's a good blow dry.' Not gonna lie, I thought this was some kind of saucy UK slang. But it turns out sometimes a good blow dry is just that. 😅
😂😂😂
She is *hilarious* 😂 So quick witted and a genius turn of phrase. Christmas gooch went unnoticed and was criminally underrated.
Absolutely I've never heard anyone say Liverpool is a blow-dry 😂😂😂😂 I love her story of how she learned the Derry accent. Madonna is a true entertainer she will be great headlining Glastonbury
derry girls must be a fun set. they're all so hilarious

Swear to god, if Marian Keyes ever has her Walsh sisters’ books adapted to film/tv she has to be one of the sisters!
SMJ is an absolute natural at everything - beauty, personality, humour, intelligence, etc. She would be brilliant as Debbie Harry - someone please make it happen.

Her voice is irritating.

Your comment is irritating and rude . Move along before a house falls on you too!🧙🏻
