Speaking to 'So many people are invested in the show and the storylines. People will come up to me and tell me that I need to 'tell Pete to f off', or tell me that I need to 'stop giving out to Doug'. But it's always with good intentions. People like Erica; she's not a villain.' read more on Fair City Over the course of her time on the soap, Roxanna has become well adjusted to people recognising her in public, even if it isn't from her work on Fair City. She said: "Sometimes people ask me where they know me from, and I always worry if I say Fair City they'll say, 'No, I don't watch it, I just went to school with your brother'. "I used to be embarrassed in case people thought I was bragging, but now it's grand.' Although Roxanna may be known for her acting work, outside of Carrigstown she is an accomplished and avid writer. Most read in News TV She explained: "As an actor, you can have a lot of down time, so I've started to write more. It's a really cool way of having control over your work, because as an actor, you don't always have that. 'You can prepare for an audition, but as soon as you walk into a room bosses might not think you're right. Writing is a great way to use my time and process things that are going on in the world. It's a fun and healthy way to channel those feelings.' Tonight's Fair City Roxanna is not the only Fair City star who has had a varied range of hobbies or jobs outside of the show. Her co-star, Cal Kenealy who plays Mark Halpin in the hit soap also opened up about Cal has been a STAR'S TRUTH But outside of the soap, he is an fully qualified driving instructor on the RSA's register. He told the Sunday World: "Every time I went into traffic I thought people were driving too fast and it was a bit dangerous and I thought, 'I could do something here'." Despite his work in the spotlight, Cal's students aren't fazed by his telly appearances - most of whom don't even watch the show. He explained: "There was one situation where I was with one student who got very confused, because we were doing a reverse around a corner and someone walks past and goes, 'Fair City' and the student said, 'What did they say', and, 'They just said Fair City' and they were like, 'What'. 'It was very funny because they didn't know what was going on. I think the younger generation don't really watch TV and are on Tik Tok or whatever." 3 Roxanna first joined the show in 2018 Credit: RTE
