Sinchronicity
Camille Coduri plays Peggy
Peggy's a no-nonsense porn baroness who's made a career -
and a fortune - out of catering for the titillatory tastes of women and
couples.
She knows Nathan can be all mouth and no trousers,
so she takes great joy in putting him in sticky work situations. With all
the wonderful variety that the world of porn has to offer, there's never
ending entertainment to be had at Nathan's expense.
Camille says: "I was first approached by Julie Gardner, executive producer for
BBC Wales about Sinchronity. I got half-way through the first script and was
absolutely hooked. The writing was so slick I knew immediately that I wanted
to do it.
"Peggy struck me as a hard-nose businesswoman who is a bit of a bully towards
her employees, particularly Nathan (Paul Chequer). She is also incredibly
uninhibited about sex and the porn industry.
"Peggy seemed like a real challenge
to play because she is the complete antithesis of me and so different
from my other roles. It was quite invigorating to play her, I especially
liked being able to get my own way all of the time as Peggy!
"Not much of Peggy's home life is given away in Sinchronicity, but I imagine
that she is married to a bloke that she met on the game and now has a huge
house in Cheshire.
"Throughout the series she is consistently hard, driven
and unable to take no for an answer, but then I suppose you would have
to be, working in such a male-dominated industry."
