About The Author
Joanna Page
Born in Swansea, Joanna attended her local comprehensive school before graduating from RADA in 1998. She then spent ten years in stage-based roles for the Royal National Theatre and Royal Shakespeare Company. She also secured roles in major films, such as From Hell, Mine All Mine, and Richard Curtis’ classic, Love Actually.
Joanna came to wide public attention after taking a leading role in the BBC comedy Gavin and Stacey, playing the main part of Stacey Shipman. She appeared in the show’s three series between 2007 and 2010, before returning for a Christmas special in 2019, which became the most-watched comedy (with 17 million viewers) since Only Fools and Horses in 2002. In May 2024 it was announced that a final episode of the show will be broadcast on Christmas Day.
Since 2023, she has appeared as a regular panellist on the ITV talk show Loose Women and has retrained as an animal care assistant in Joanna Page’s Wild Life for BBC2. Joanna also co-hosts the BBC podcast, ‘Off The Telly’ with Natalie Cassidy.
