"It's a beautiful sunny day and the final day of an 11-week shoot when I meet Aidan Quinn. The base for RTÉ's new six-part series The Walsh Sisters is on the grounds of Terenure College in Dublin. Everyone is buzzing, full of the joys of what has clearly been a wonderful project to work on. A wrap party everyone actually wants to go to, someone tells me happily."
"Marian Keyes, upon whose beloved books the TV series is based, is about somewhere, visiting the set with her mother. As I stand chatting to Stefanie Preissner - who along with Kefi Chadwick,wrote the show and also stars as Maggie Walsh - Louisa Harland, who plays her onscreen sister, joins us. The atmosphere is that of the last day of school before the summer holidays."
