Actor Theresa Healey first appeared on-screen, entertaining a generation of kids on Play School, having already supplied the voice for the show's famous 'here's a house' opening. She won more fans thanks to a five year stint as nurse Carmen Roberts on Shortland Street. Since then Healey has acted in everything from Go Girls and Agent Anna, to movies Jubilee and Savage Honeymoon.
In this ScreenTalk interview, Healey talks about:
The character was sassy. She got all the best lines. The writers loved her, and because I could deliver them, they loved that. If they love you, they write for you, and they looked after me so well . . . The character was very much their creation, but then I put my little bit of extra Theresa-ness in there and I loved it; I loved her.– Theresa Healey on playing nurse Carmen Roberts to life on Shortland Street
