Helen McCrory at BBC Press Office: Messiah IV – The Harrowing
Helen McCrory as Rachel Price
by BBC Press Office | August 18, 2005
When preparing for her role as Messiah’s new Chief Pathologist, Rachel Price, Helen McCrory drew a line at attending a real autopsy despite being offered the opportunity.
“I walked into make-up one day for tests and opened a pathology book, literally took one look and shut it straight away. I just couldn’t bear to look at it any more.
“It wasn’t so much that I am squeamish – although I am – it was more to do with the fact that these are people who are someone’s daughter, mother, brother and that was the main difference between the character and myself,” she says.

In A Land Of Plenty is a 10-episode British television drama serial produced by Sterling Pictures and Talkback for BBC Two in the United Kingdom. Adapted for television by Kevin Hood and Neil Biswas from the novel by Tim Pears., it was first broadcast in the United Kingdom starting on January 10, 2001 and describes a sprawling family saga taking place from the 1950s to the 1990s in England. Through the lives, deaths, tragedies and loves of the Freeman family, the series charts how Britain was shaped after World War II. It was subsequently broadcast in the USA on BBC America. The show was co-financed between WGBH-TV and the BBC and was produced by Michael Riley and John Chapman. Executive Producers were Peter Fincham and Tessa Ross. The soundtrack was written by composer and musician Jocelyn Pook.
Theatre: In a World of Whose Own?
She is an actress with a chameleon-like ability to swap accents, he is a writer whose work is anchored in his native Belfast. Together, they are on stage at the Donmar
by Jasper Rees | March 3, 1998 | The Independent
ACTORS fall into two broad categories: those who play themselves and those who play other people. One type gets recognised in the street rather more than the other. Last year, while Lynda La Plante’s Trial and Retribution was being screened, Helen McCrory found herself dragged into a pub debate about the moral issues thrown up by the series. “I assumed arrogantly that this conversation had been sparked off by the fact that they knew who I was. They asked me my opinion and I realised after about 10 minutes they had no idea.”
You can see why. McCrory is currently at the Donmar in In a Little World of Our Own, a new play by Gary Mitchell in which she puts on an Ulster accent to play a born-again Christian in the heart of Protestant Belfast. In Stand and Deliver, a BBC film by Les Blair, she plays a feckless English photographer in Glasgow. In The James Gang, a road movie directed by Mike Barker, she’s a Scot who fetches up in Wales. The Donmar play opens the theatre’s annual “Four Corners” season: it sounds as if McCrory could play all four corners herself.
