Actress Jill Halfpenny joins Sally on the sofa this week for a heartfelt and revealing new episode of A Night In With Sally Lindsay.
Fresh from starring alongside Sally in Channel 5’s gripping new drama Number One Fan, Jill reflects on her remarkable career - from her breakthrough role in Byker Grove to becoming a household name in EastEnders and Coronation Street, and even lifting the Glitterball trophy as champion of Strictly Come Dancing.
But behind the success, Jill has faced unimaginable personal heartbreak. Having lost her father unexpectedly as a child and later experiencing the sudden death of her partner, Matt, Jill opens up candidly about living with grief, navigating life after loss, and the lessons she’s learned about resilience, healing and finding gratitude through difficult times.
In this honest and emotional conversation, Jill shares how loss has shaped her outlook on life and inspired a more positive, grounded perspective. Jill and Sally also share plenty of laughs as they look back on working together, swap stories from their soap star days, and discuss their brave decisions to step away from the TV roles that made them household names.
