Afterlife star Kerry Godliman opens up on bond with ‘easygoing’ Ricky Gervais and how reaction to show left her overwhelmed

ok.co.uk:

When Kerry Godliman was cast as Lisa, the deceased wife of Ricky Gervais’s character Tony in After Life, she never could have predicted the impact her role would have.

In fact, her performance left even her own husband Ben Abell in tears after he watched the show on his own! The actress, who is mum to daughter Elsie, 13, and son Frank, 10, has the rare ability to make you laugh and cry in the same breath.

But, she jokes, “I have played the odd w****r too and that’s loads of fun!” Kerry has certainly proved her talent across the board.

She also starred in Ricky’s Derek, and has now reprised her role as Teens in Sky Original series Save Me Too, alongside Lennie James and Suranne Jones.
