TV Jessie’s long march to success
FOLLOWING her huge success in hit TV drama Chernobyl, Jessie Buckley has little to be embarrassed about now – but the 30-year-old Irish actress cringes at one memory of her teenage years growing up in Co Kerry.
‘I was in the Gleneagle marching band, which was the social suicidal point in my life,’ Jessie, right, recalls.
‘Every Sunday with my clarinet, which had some apparatus missing, I would march around car parks in Killarney with a band. Please laugh – it is incredibly laughable.’
