Daisy May Cooper and Selin Hizli
Cat and Edith meet actor and writer Daisy May Cooper and her best friend Selin Hizli. They met at acting school and Daisy immediately hated Selin for being a Lily Allen wannabe.
Cat and Edith chat to actor and writer Daisy May Cooper and her best friend Selin Hizli. The pair met at the famous acting school RADA, but it wasn’t friendship at first sight. Despite Daisy initially thinking that Selin was a Lily Allen wannabe, they finally bonded over being the only working-class students in their year, and their friendship then went from strength to strength.
That was until Daisy began to ignore all of Selin’s calls, after a producer cut her role from Daisy’s 91Èȱ¬ comedy series 'This Country'. Daisy explains how she didn’t know what to say to Selin as she too was devastated with the decision, so instead of talking to her about it, she hid away from the situation.
There are tears as the pair reflect on becoming a part of one another’s lives again and how writing their new 91Èȱ¬ show 'Am I Being Unreasonable?' rescued Selin from cleaning toilets and serving tables. ‘This past year Daisy has just changed my life. She’s given me this opportunity to remember who I was again. I love you.’
