Claire Mundell is no stranger to addressing topics that she feels need to be discussed. The Cry prompted conversation about coercive control, and Claire is rightly proud of being part of that wider conversation. 

Nobody can deny the importance of the themes in The Tattooist of Auschwitz, her most recent (international and frankly massive) TV series but she tells Danni about the unexpected power of the story, namely how it made Hollywood royalty come forward to be part of the project. And we do mean royalty, how about Harvey Keitel, Hans Zimmer and Barbra Streisand as names to drop?
