In this rare and candid interview with actor and TV presenter Caroline Morahan, the lid is lifted on the “you should be grateful” attitude in RTÉ which once saw Caroline being told, during a meeting with the broadcaster, that she should be thinking about having children (21:00). Having spent a time on Fair City as a teenager, Caroline also opens up about her most crushing moment while on the show (9:00) and why Off the Rails was a transformative programme for Irish women (16:00).
From leaving Ireland behind for the career potential in a lonely LA (41:00) to a heartfelt moment of bonding with Jarlath over losing a family member (1:02:00), this interview gives a fascinating insight into Caroline’s journey from Drogheda to Hollywood.
