Transcript

00:00She stole our hearts as Nina in Neighbours before embarking on a highly successful singing

00:09career, dropping hit after hit in the early noughties. And who can forget the tabloid

00:13frenzy around her relationship with Brian from Westlife? Well, she'd probably like

00:17to. But now Delta Goodrum is back on the road with brand new music and is gearing up for

00:21the release of her first Netflix movie. She's been telling Jodie McCallum why her life is

00:26very much on the up.

00:27Delta, it's so good to see you. It's so good to have you back in the UK. How does it feel

00:42to be back?

00:43I am so happy to be here with you, first and foremost. And secondly, yes, it is. It feels

00:49so exciting. It's like a celebration coming back. First time on tour. I'm just, yeah,

00:54over here. I'm very excited. It's been a long time. I've obviously got wonderful friends.

00:58I straight away texted all my Scottish friends and said, I'm finally getting over there.

01:03I've had a real connection there for so many years. I don't know whether it's like just

01:08from ancestors or what it is, but there's always a great time, you know, with the Scots.

01:13Yeah, absolutely. The Scots love you. We love you. And it's great that you're back.

01:17And I'm absolutely obsessed with your new single Back to Your Heart. It's so euphoric

01:21and nostalgic. What was the inspiration behind the track?

01:24You know, the idea was that basically it was written with the idea of live shows because

01:30last year we'd been touring with the Backstreet Boys and they, which was more fun than I could

01:35possibly explain in my life, a highlight. And then just being on the road and seeing

01:40like those 20 to 30,000 people every single night, singing along and just that passion

01:45for that pop music and lyrics. And it just kind of inspired us to get back to, you know,

01:51back to your heart and how to get into your heart. And I wanted to embrace the big hair

01:55and the big goggles. There is those moments where you go, we just want to let loose and

01:59hear everybody clap and sing along and unite. That's it.

02:02Let's have some fun.

02:03Yeah.

02:04Well, the best place to go to film a music video to have some fun is Have a Nightclub

02:06in Soho, which is a very classy establishment.

02:10I go there every time I get to the UK. So I thought it was only natural to shoot my

02:16music video there.

02:17As Ico, I absolutely love that you did that. And you had like 100 fans with you as well, right?

02:22So I just sent it out there saying, you know, first 100 people or something. Like we're

02:28going to just surprise.

02:29And you're really busy because you've got the Hearts on the Run European UK tour. But

02:33then you've got the 20th anniversary Alice in Ice tour coming up as well.

02:39Can you believe it's been 20 years since the release of Alice in Ice? Like, oh my goodness.

02:44Where's time gone?

02:4520 years. I don't know. I don't know. It feels like it was yesterday.

02:49That album and that moment has, you know, just been really, been a huge part of my life,

02:56you know, to this day. And I love that people, you know, we shared that together.

03:02You must be one of the busiest people on the planet because not only are you doing all

03:04of this on the music front, but you're also acting.

03:08That was in the air.

03:09That was in the air.

03:10I'm so excited. I love a rom-com.

03:12So do I.

03:13So this is a new movie you're starring in, and Netflix. Tell me all about it.

03:16I play a lady called, a lady. I play a lady. I play a lady. I play a character called Dinah.

03:25Dinah is a seaplane pilot. It was pretty cool because my partner's dad was a pilot, was

03:30teaching me all the different little tricks.

03:33Could you fly a seaplane though, do you think?

03:35You know, he'll go asking me. Health and safety first.

03:39Well, talking about acting, obviously we saw you reprise your role as Nina Tucker in Neighbours,

03:44and fans are absolutely delighted that Neighbours are coming back. Do you think it was just

03:49because there was so much love for it, that's why it's been able to come back quite quickly?

03:53Yeah, I mean, I've got conspiracies about it.

03:56Okay! I love that!

03:59I love a conspiracy theory.

04:01I think that, you know, they honestly did have the same kind of couch and things backstage

04:06for a really long time, so I think it might have been a refurb, you know, I'm not sure.

04:10But no, it's amazing that it's back. I'm very thrilled that the cast get to continue on.

04:15It's the best. Neighbours gave me my start in the industry, so I'm always there, I'm

04:19always a phone call away for them.

04:20Well, I'm so glad that's back. I'm so glad you're back. It's like the Aussie revival

04:24right now. I love it!

04:25Let's go!

04:26Yeah!

04:27Netflix's new film, Love Is In The Air, arrives on Netflix on September the 28th. Promising

04:32sun, sea and shrimps on the barbie. What's not to love?
