Everyone’s talking about: GLOW’s Kate Nash
The singer and Netflix star has defended WWE from “fake” criticisms.
Speaking to Angela Scanlon on BBC Radio 2, Nash reflected on the research her wrestling fan friends gave her before landing the role to make sure she took the gig seriously.
“That’s because some people suggest that wrestling isn’t a real sport – or WWE at least,” Angela offered.
Because it’s entertainment, rather than wrestling, because there is an element of choreographing and planning of these. Because it is kind of the perfect marriage of hardcore violence and spectacle.”
A Killing In A Small Town (TG4, 9.25pm) A Sunday school teacher has an affair with a married man, leading to a fatal confrontation.
