She said: “I loved working with Sam Page who played my love interest and he’d just finished a great role on House of Cards with Kevin Spacey. 

“However, our first scene together was a bit awkward as it involved a long passionate kiss.

“It’s quite intimidating meeting someone new then being lip-locked for 10 takes. Kissing a stranger is unnerving and frankly, scary, but Sam is so charming and talented all our scenes together were raucous good fun.”
