Godliman portrayed Lisa in the Netflix series. <\/p>
Kerry Godliman returns to Trigger Point<\/a> as the \u201calways professional\u201d Sonya, as the bomb disposal team face an attack in the heart of the city, which Lana finds herself closest to.<\/p>\n Much like in season 1, Godliman\u2019s character gives Lana (Vicky McClure) information on explosive devices, and reflecting on her character ahead of the release of season 2, Godliman said she feels \u201clucky\u201d to take part in a drama, and that starring in Netflix\u2019s After Life helped her get where she is now.<\/p>\n \u201cI do feel lucky that I get to do both [comedy and drama]. I did drama first, way before comedy,\u201d she said in a Q&A with ITV.<\/p> \u201cWhen I first left drama school, I was doing Casualty and The Bill, all the dramas, and then quietly working up a stand-up career on the circuit.<\/p>\n \u201cThose two worlds didn\u2019t really ever cross over for me until I worked with Ricky Gervais, because he knew me from the comedy world but some of his shows had quite dramatic elements, too.<\/p>\n \u201cWhen I did After Life it became such a big show, so you get seen more and people think of you for other things.\u201d<\/p>\n Godliman portrayed Lisa in After Life, the late wife of Tony (Ricky Gervais) who is shown through a sequence of flashbacks and home videos throughout the series.<\/p>\n Read more:<\/strong><\/p>\n This makes her quite different to the Trigger Point character of Sonya, who Godliman described as \u201calways professional\u201d and someone who \u201cworks all the time\u201d.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s relentless for her,\u201d Godliman explained. \u201c<\/span>There isn\u2019t much let-up and it\u2019s a high-crisis<\/span> jo<\/span>b. You <\/span>probably do need a coping strategy when you work in a career like that, and I think she has become desensitised to a lot of t<\/span>hin<\/span>gs.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cMaybe that troubles her a little, that she has slightly numbed the softer parts of her personality, but if you see the stuff<\/span> she<\/span> sees <\/span>every day, there will inevitably be some fallout to that.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n\n
