Now that 'The Fall' with Gillian Anderson and Jamie Dornan has arrived on Netflix, it's become one of the steamer's most-watched series this year, appearing in Ireland and the UK's Top 10 for the past number of weeks. And Aisling Bea has quite a few stories to tell from her time on set.
Appearing in four episodes in the final season as Nurse Sheridan back in 2016, Aisling has poked some fun at her co-star Jamie Dornan, while also managing to praise NHS nurses in the UK for working long hours. The actress also revealed that because of her training while on set, she was able to help a friend "when they needed care".

She then spoke of the training she received during filming 'The Fall', praising the nurses for helping her behind the scenes. She continued: "Thanks to the nurses and them being so good to me, I can still genuinely change a tracheostomy tube & years later was able to help a friend do this when they needed care.
"There were 2 brilliant ICU nurses on set all the time during filming keeping an eye that we were doing the stuff right & they were such good craic. I forget their names so if you know who you are, please message. They even invited me to the nurse’s Xmas party that was happening during filming in my hotel."
The actress then went on to allude to getting up to a spot of "socially distanced activity" in dogging while in she was in Lockdown earlier this year, before spreading some more love about hard-working nurses.
