The experience of Emilia Holliday, who plays a murdered teen in the show 'Adolescence', highlights the complexities of acting in successful productions. Despite minimal on-screen presence, her portrayal as a victim in CCTV footage led to emotional reactions from her family, particularly her mother. Holliday, with a background in musical theatre, was delighted by the opportunity to participate, though surprised by the nature of the role. She discovered her selection of photos used in the show only upon its release, reflecting how even minor roles can impact oneâs life uniquely.
My mum was very weirded out. She definitely felt a bit weird.
I was really happy. It was a bit unexpected, she says, but it's still amazing.
I had no idea which ones were chosen until I watched Adolescence, so that was a shock.
It's really young pictures of me.
