‘It meant so much to my community': Say Nothing star Lola Petticrew reveals they have only watched hunger strike episode once
The actor, who uses they/them pronouns, and is currently campaigning for the Disney Plus and FX programme's Emmy nominations, revealed the episode was the one they were most 'anxious about.' 'What these young women went through — let's call it what it is: it was state-sponsored torture, and I feel like that was the episode we had to get really right in order to be respectful to these women's experiences,' they told Entertainment Weekly. "It was the episode I was particularly anxious about.' The episode, which comes around halfway through the series, depicts Dolours Price (Petticrew) alongside her sister Marian (Hazel Doupe) convicted of their involvement in the Old Bailey bombing. The pair are later seen going on hunger strike, during which they are force-fed by prison doctors and staff. "I felt like it was important to watch this particular project because of how much it meant to me and it meant to my community,' they added. "I wanted to see if we managed to do what we set out to do." The west Belfast actor also described the force-feeding scenes as the most difficult of their career. "I mean, I'm rubbing my chest because I can still sort of feel it there," they said while reflecting on the experience. "I'm quite a physical person, and I believe we all hold our emotions physically in our bodies, and it's very scary to relinquish control of that. "I knew that I wasn't being force-fed, but when you have a wooden bit in your mouth and people holding you down, it's hard to convince yourself that it's not reality." They also revealed the crew of Say Nothing implemented intimacy coordinators – professionals who work with actors and film production teams to ensure that intimate scenes are carried out safely, respectfully, and consensually – for the scenes, in order to choreograph them. "As awful as it was for me to have my body treated that way, it's also hard to treat somebody's body that way. I wanted to make sure that wasn't forgotten.' Petticrew, who was nominated for a BAFTA Television Award for Best Actress for their performance, alongside winning the Irish Film and Television Award for Best Actress in a Drama, is tipped to be nominated for Best Actress in a Limited Series or Movie at next month's Emmy nominations. When asked about the programme's significance, they said they still have a visceral reaction to their performance and the series, which is based on Patrick Radden Keefe's non-fiction book Say Nothing: A True Story of Murder and Memory in Northern Ireland. "I still feel it so much in my body, and I find it hard not to just break down into tears sometimes when people approach me or when I'm talking about it," they said. They also hit back at any criticism for taking another role set during the Troubles — as they will next be seen alongside Gillian Anderson in Channel 4's Trespasses this autumn. "A lot of people heard that I was doing another Troubles story and were kind of surprised. I find that a bit shocking because whenever these guys play soldiers back-to-back, nobody bats an eyelid. It's a period of time [that has] a massive tapestry to pull from," they said.
