00:00 Daisy, hi! I'm Jodie, lovely to meet you.

00:02 How you doing?

00:03 I'm wearing this dress. I'm in awe, it's absolutely incredible.

00:06 Thank you.

00:07 Honestly, you look amazing.

00:08 Thank you.

00:08 I am perplexed at this because I believe that you are like me. You're not an amazing swimmer.

00:15 No.

00:16 Beforehand, you were scared of the open water. I'm terrified. How has this happened, Daisy?

00:21 I know. It was one of those things I thought, what have I done? There were a few moments

00:25 I thought, what have I done? Light up my CV. And then it's too late. I think what I've

00:30 realised with doing other films too, with things I'm scared of, like Heights, which

00:35 I just did, is the want to tell the film overrides the fear. And knowing that I have an amazing

00:42 safety net and knowing I have an amazing coach in Siobhan Marie O'Connor who is going to

00:45 help me conquer some of that. And being part of a conversation of how best we were going

00:50 to do that and having my hair and makeup and costume team who were there to make sure I

00:57 was warm in between times. There were so many people making sure I was as comfortable as

01:00 possible that I could just squish the rest of it, put it to one side until I had done

01:04 the thing. And then after we were finished filming, let that panic come out.

01:10 Yeah. I mean, but filming in the Black Sea, there's the jellyfish scene. I mean, it was

01:14 a lot, Daisy.

01:16 It was a lot.

01:17 How did you overcome the fear?

01:19 Well, I suppose I didn't really. I did my acting. Trudy loved swimming, so that was

01:29 what overtook me. I was scared of something, but I'm playing the person that loved it.

01:35 So letting that love wash over me. But also, it must have been terrifying at points and

01:40 the things that she had to go through, even that one swim, let alone the previous one

01:45 where she says she was poisoned, and I'm sure she was poisoned. There was so much for her

01:49 to overcome each time, each step of the way, before the swim, during the swim. So using

01:56 my determination to try and get a piece of her determination.

01:59 It's honestly incredible what you've achieved.

02:01 Thank you.

02:02 Like, honestly, I'm amazed.

02:02 Thank you.

02:03 I believe you actually had lunch in the pool one day. How did that happen?

02:07 We had one day of tank work to do the underwater stuff, and honestly, it was just easier to

02:12 not get out. When you get in and out, obviously, it's used as a bathroom, but otherwise, it's

02:16 just you get cold and each time you go out, it's actually that much more uncomfortable

02:21 to do that, so I was really trying to limit how much water I was drinking and how often

02:25 I had to leave. It was just easier to have my lunch on a lovely little tray. It was almost

02:29 like a swim up bar, but at work.

02:32 Well, that's the thing. I've had drinks in the water, but never lunch, but I might try

02:35 that now that you've inspired me.

02:37 Please.

02:37 Now, I believe you pretty much got offered your next part on live television the other

02:41 day with David Goldberg.

02:42 Thank you. Thank you for mentioning it. Yep.

02:44 I know you really want to be in a musical, don't you?

02:46 Look, have me and Whoopi texted? Yes. Did she reiterate the offer? Yes. Can I believe

02:53 it? No.

02:54 Would you do it?

02:55 I mean, are you mad? Of course.

02:57 How much do you want to be in a musical? Because I do feel like it's-

03:00 I'm shameless. I talked about it on Graham Norton. I've talked about it in interviews.

03:06 I'm not shy about it. It hasn't happened yet, but then Whoopi.

03:10 We're making this happen. Even if it's not Whoopi, I hope that does happen, but we've

03:14 made this happen. It's an injustice, frankly.

03:16 Look, even if it doesn't happen, everything that happened meeting her was so overwhelming

03:21 and wonderful, and she was so kind and gracious in a way that didn't surprise me, but I just

03:28 thought, 'This is Whoopi Goldberg.' It's still so flummoxing to me, so even just meeting

03:34 her.

03:35 Incredible. She's amazing. She told me I had lipstick on my teeth once, and I was like,

03:38 'That's a real one. That's a real one.'

03:40 That's a real- I bet she'd tell you if you had food in your teeth.

03:42 Exactly.

03:42 Yeah.

03:43 Now, this man beside you, I believe you've been sharing this with him as well because

03:47 you asked for a part in the Pirates of the Caribbean movie.

03:49 Obviously. Obviously.

03:50 Female-led. I mean, you've got to be in it. Now, you've proved that you can do it.

03:53 I mean, I'm like, 'Guys, look what we've done. I'm ready for the next one.'

03:58 Yeah.

03:59 Amazing. Well, listen, it's so lovely to meet you.

04:01 Thank you so much.

04:01 Look, you get some water.

04:02 Thank you.

04:02 And the Heathiers.

04:03 Oh, look, there's some.

04:03 There you go.

04:04 Thank you. In an unmarked glass.

04:06 Yeah.

04:07 Look at you.

04:08 Thank you.

04:09 Thank you ever so much.
