I cannot express just how many dandelions I had to chew on for this scene. Tbf, the dandelions were dipped in sugar water, so it wasn’t the worst tasting thing in the world, but could we have filmed it without me actually chewing on real life dandelions? Potentially. Did it prove my long long-standing theory that I will be happy to chew on mostly anything as long as it’s dipped in sugar first? Definitely.
‘Lady Bigfoot’ is still available on the BBC iPlayer if you fancy watching me chew on more dandelions and whatnot.
