Since appearing in the hit 2020 show Daisy, who split from boyfriend of two years Tom Varey last year, has gone on to earn Hollywood fame.

She starred in box office hit Where The Crawdads Sing this year and has just been cast as Carole King in the film adaptation of Beautiful.

Having studied at the National Youth Theatre, Daisy landed her TV debut, aged 17, in a 2016 Christmas special of BBC sitcom Outnumbered.

Other parts soon followed in ITV sitcom Cold Feet, BBC crime drama Silent Witness and BBC historical lesbian drama Gentleman Jack.

But before hitting the big time with Normal People, Daisy admits her life was not easy. She said: “It was quite an anxious time.”

That then changed in the spring of 2020 as Normal People, based on Irish author Sally Rooney’s 2018 novel of the same name, provided X-rated excitement for a country stuck indoors during the pandemic.

The many and graphic sex scenes, awkward conversations — and Connell’s famous neck chain — were all major talking points, if only over the phone, Zoom or in our socially distanced bubbles.

Daisy said: “I was really proud of the work I’d done in that show. I felt more confident in myself.”
