Tell us about your character...
I play the duty manager, Leigh, and as we discover throughout the series, she’s having a kind of relationship with Gabe.

What is the premise of The Control Room?

It’s a thriller set in the paramedic world in a call centre in Scotland. It’s an edge of your seat thriller. You never know what’s happening or what’s going to happen. There are so many revelations as the series progresses.

Where do we meet Leigh?
We meet Leigh in the opening scenes in the control room and learn that she is overseeing everything that is going on. There are small hints and nods to the relationship that she has with Gabe, but we don’t see the full manifestation of that straightaway. It’s more of a reveal as the series goes on.

What did you think of the scripts?
I read them all in one sitting because they are absolute page turners and you never quite know which way it’s going to go. You go on a journey with Gabe, his lows, his highs and when he is biting his nails. But every character is so powerful and packs a punch regardless of whether they have one scene, 10 or 15.
