00:00Oh my god, that's so funny!
00:01And it was one of the funniest things I've ever read in my life!
00:04I touched your boot but I didn't mean to you because it was an accident and I love you.
00:06I love you and I respect you.
00:08Busted I had a deep love in my loins for.
00:16Hello, I'm Claudia Jessie.
00:18And I'm Nicola Coughlin.
00:19And we're playing How Well Do You Know Your Co-Star?
00:22With Marie Claire.
00:24Sorry, we didn't plan it.
00:25I don't know why instinctively we should be able to do that.
00:28Sorry.
00:28I'm nervous more about getting yours wrong.
00:30No, you won't.
00:31I don't want to get yours wrong.
00:32No, it's fine if you do even.
00:33Who cares?
00:34I won't forget myself.
00:35Alright.
00:36What dog do I have?
00:37Do I have a Frenchie?
00:40A Staffie?
00:41Or a Cockapoo?
00:43I'm almost certain he's a Staffie.
00:46But then I'm like, no, is he a French?
00:48Well, I can picture him.
00:50And his name is Ernie.
00:52And my publicist dog is called Bert, so I always have to remember who has Bert and who has Ernie.
00:56Great.
00:56But you have Ernie, yeah?
00:58Yeah, I have Ernie.
00:58Yeah, but it mixes me up.
01:00The moment that I clicked that in my head, I was like Bert and Ernie.
01:02And then I'm like, well, it's like hands and deck.
01:04I have to think about which one is which.
01:05So what do you think your final answer is?
01:07A Staffie.
01:08Yes, it's a Staffie.
01:09But one thing, it's a girl.
01:12Oh, I did know that.
01:13Damn it.
01:14It's Ernie the girl, but it's not your fault because everybody calls my male named dog a boy.
01:19Yeah.
01:19Because her name's Ernie.
01:20Ernie the girl.
01:22There we go.
01:23Ernie the girl.
01:23Well done.
01:24Yay.
01:25Okay.
01:26What instrument did I play as a child?
01:29So we've got tin whistle, piano, or violin.
01:35I can see you with all of them.
01:39At once.
01:40At my one woman band.
01:42But I had to give up.
01:43But I want to see you the most with a tin whistle.
01:46You'd be correct.
01:47Cut!
01:48However, that was sort of a trick question because I played two of them.
01:51This is just an opportunity for me to brag.
01:53It's brilliant.
01:54When I was about, I want to say ten, there's a thing called the Fesh Keol in Ireland,
02:00which is like a celebration of Irish culture.
02:01So you play traditional Irish instruments and do poetry in Irish or a speech, whatever.
02:07But I competed in the tin whistle and it wasn't violin, it was fiddle.
02:11But I think if I'd written fiddle, you would have immediately known.
02:13So I competed in both of them and I got first place that year in both tin whistle and fiddle.
02:17But then I gave up because acting was so much easier and I didn't have to remember music.
02:22That's amazing.
02:23Yeah.
02:23And you smashed it at acting as well.
02:25Which of these three jobs did I have?
02:28Okay.
02:29Er, stuntwoman.
02:30Okay.
02:31Nanny.
02:32Mm-hmm.
02:33Or a dog walker.
02:34That'd be dog walker surely.
02:37What makes you think that?
02:38You love dogs.
02:40That's true.
02:40I was a dog walker.
02:41Yeah.
02:43Can you imagine me doing my own stunts?
02:44A stuntwoman.
02:45If you had hidden that from it, I'd be like, how?
02:48Yeah.
02:48Amazing.
02:49No.
02:50I do all my own stunts in Bridgerton as well.
02:51I've really had to do a bunch of my own stunts.
02:54Oh no, I can't say because it's a spoiler for a thing.
02:57Oh well.
02:57That was going to be a good story.
02:58It's not anymore.
02:59One day it's going to be amazing.
03:01One day it'll be a good story.
03:02But yeah.
03:02Well done, dog walker.
03:03Yeah.
03:04Great.
03:04Okay.
03:05I cried when I met what celebrity?
03:08All right.
03:09Beyonce, Michael Palin, or Judi Dench?
03:12Michael Palin.
03:14Correct.
03:15Yes.
03:15You knew that story.
03:16Yes.
03:17Yeah.
03:17And it's a great one to cry at.
03:18I cried near Beyonce.
03:20I haven't met Beyonce, but I went to Renaissance.
03:22Listen, who hasn't?
03:23Yeah.
03:23I just got overwhelmed.
03:25And I remembered seeing her in Destiny's Child when I was like 14.
03:29And I was like, and this woman, she's come back and she's more powerful than ever.
03:34And watch, she doesn't.
03:35That performance.
03:36And I just was crying near her, but not to her.
03:38But Michael Palin, I met, spoke to him.
03:40He was a huge inspiration for me.
03:41You worked with him.
03:42I remember when we first started working together.
03:44And what a-
03:45Beautiful human being.
03:46He was a perfect, perfect man.
03:46He's a really great storyteller as well.
03:49Just beautiful.
03:50All right.
03:50First ever crush.
03:52Roadrunner.
03:53I don't need the answers.
03:55It's Jessica Rabbit.
03:56It is.
03:56But would you like to know that all of the three options were cartoons?
03:59Cartoons.
04:01I think I knew that about you as well.
04:02Yeah, you did know that about me.
04:04Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
04:05And-
04:05Because every- I was that child.
04:07Everyone was like, you should fancy this person.
04:08I was like, shh, yeah, straight up.
04:09I'll do it.
04:11I was like, yeah.
04:12Jonathan Taylor Thomas, sign me up.
04:14I'll do it.
04:15I'll fancy you.
04:15Devin Sawa, who was in Casper now and then.
04:20I'm truly in love with him.
04:22Leonardo DiCaprio in Titanic.
04:24Romeo and Juliet.
04:25God, Leonardo DiCaprio in Romeo and Juliet.
04:27I mean, it's good stuff, innit?
04:28It's great stuff.
04:29But is it a 2D drawing of a woman with huge tits?
04:33It's not, is it?
04:34I thought you were describing Leonardo DiCaprio like that.
04:36I was like, what film was that?
04:37What?
04:37You've not seen his latest film?
04:40Jessica Rabbit.
04:41Yeah, gorgeous.
04:42I still got a crush on it.
04:43Why wouldn't you?
04:44Yeah.
04:44Shout out my name.
04:46What is this?
04:47This is my confirmation name, right?
04:49Oh man.
04:50So confirmation name is in Ireland.
04:51Like if you were raised Catholic, which I was, at your confirmation you get to pick
04:55like an extra middle name.
04:56My mum's got one because my mum's got confirmation.
04:58Right?
04:58But like you say to a 12 year old, pick any name for yourself.
05:02What do you think is going to happen?
05:03Mad ****.
05:04Right?
05:05So these are the three options.
05:08Raquel, Marilyn or Tina.
05:12I'm going with Marilyn.
05:14I love that you think that.
05:16It's not.
05:17But I tried to, okay.
05:20Basically it was Tina.
05:21The reason I picked it was because the movie Now and Then, weirdly talking about it twice
05:25in one interview, it had this character in a cult, Tina, a teenager cell.
05:31And then her nickname was Teenie and she wanted to be an actress.
05:34And I wanted to be an actress when I was 12.
05:36And I was like, I'm going to make that my middle name.
05:37And then I got to become an actress.
05:39And my teacher did not want to let me pick Tina.
05:41And I did.
05:43Now who's laughing?
05:45So it's Nicola.
05:46Mary.
05:47Tina.
05:49It doesn't really fit.
05:50But you know what?
05:51It was, you know, my determination at 12.
05:53Yeah.
05:54I'm really upset I got one wrong, actually.
05:55No, that's fine.
05:56It's an insane question and an insane thing I did when I was a child.
05:58Don't worry about it.
05:59I thought it was really brave.
06:01All right.
06:01What's my fave dish?
06:02I don't even think you need the answers.
06:05Bibimbap.
06:05It is.
06:06It's bibimbap.
06:06I've never had it.
06:08It's so good.
06:10It's so good.
06:11It's like a clay bowl with rice and vegetables all julienne.
06:17And then that gochujang.
06:18Oh yeah, julienne.
06:18And then that gochujang.
06:19That really hot, spicy Korean sauce.
06:22Hot, hot, hot sauce.
06:22Oh, it's unbelievable.
06:23I could eat that every single day.
06:25See, I don't care about rice that much.
06:27I love rice.
06:28I love pasta.
06:29I love a complex cab.
06:30A complex cab.
06:33Because I too, I'm a complex cab.
06:36How old was I when I had my first acting job?
06:39Ooh, young.
06:40Was I 15?
06:41Was I nine?
06:43Or was I three?
06:45Oh, man.
06:47Oh, Lorde.
06:48I'm going to go for nine.
06:50Can you be correct?
06:51Yes.
06:52Yeah.
06:52You've been doing it such a long time.
06:54Yeah.
06:55But then everyone's like, you started at nine.
06:56I'm like, yeah, don't ask me about my 20s.
06:58Not a lot happens.
06:59Yeah.
07:00Do you remember retail?
07:01That's what I was doing.
07:02Yeah.
07:03Yes.
07:03It was a James Brolin movie.
07:05James Brolin is Mr. Barbra Streisand.
07:07He had a movie called My Brother's War.
07:08And I was nine and I got to skip school and go into Galway City and feed swans on camera.
07:15I had little lines, but it was fine.
07:16Feed swans?
07:17Yeah, feed swans.
07:18It was just like a little-
07:18Swans are aggressive as well.
07:19So a nine year old-
07:20And I was like, I think I'm shorty.
07:22I know.
07:22Imagine when I was nine, I was about this big.
07:24And the swans were so much bigger than me.
07:25I was like, ha, ha, ha.
07:26I don't like it.
07:26I don't like their beaks because it's like two debit cards clucking together or something.
07:30I don't like it.
07:31I don't trust them.
07:32They're punks.
07:33They're punks.
07:35All right.
07:35How long have I been vegan?
07:37Two years?
07:39Nine years?
07:40Or 15 years?
07:42I think it's like nine.
07:44It's literally nine.
07:46Nine years.
07:47Nine years.
07:48As if our last questions were both the answer is nine years.
07:51Ah, you've been a vegan as long as I was alive when I did my first film.
07:56Who it's meant to be.
07:58Yeah.
07:58Nine years.
07:59So I feel like I've earned my stripes enough to be able to tell you it's long.
08:07It's so long sometimes.
08:09That's long, girl.
08:10That's a long time.
08:11Have you ever accidentally eaten?
08:14100%.
08:14Yeah.
08:15How would you not though?
08:16Right?
08:17And you know when it's happened because it tastes delicious.
08:22Are vegans everywhere.
08:24Cue hateful comments.
08:25Oh, leave her alone.
08:26I'll fight you.
08:27I'm trying my best.
08:28No, you're a great vegan.
08:30I've done very well.
08:31But I did.
08:31I once had, there was an option to say no cheese.
08:36But then they brought the pasta over and I was like, that cheese.
08:41And then the guy went, yeah, it tastes better.
08:42And I was like, I know.
08:45I know this.
08:47So yeah.
08:48Nine years.
08:50But yes, I mean, well, I'm going to keep doing it now.
08:54I can't go back.
08:55You've committed to the bit.
08:56Yeah.
08:56Do you know what I mean?
08:57All right.
08:58One more.
08:59Okay.
08:59When I was a teenager, I loved this band so much that I jumped off a balcony to get closer
09:04to them.
09:05It's busted.
09:05Yeah, it's busted.
09:07My other actions were Green Day and Sum 41, which I also liked.
09:10But busted, I had a deep love in my loins for.
09:14Yeah.
09:14It wasn't a high balcony.
09:15It was like, it was probably about, it was probably about six foot.
09:19You know, but I was a teenager.
09:20I was like, I was bounced off it.
09:22Screaming at the top of my little lungs.
09:25Who was your favorite?
09:26Charlie.
09:26The eyebrows.
09:27Big brows.
09:27Yeah.
09:28I still love a strong brow.
09:29I find them very attractive.
09:31You actually have great brows.
09:32Do I know?
09:32No, because I literally have the strong brow.
09:35You have, but they're stunning.
09:36It's because my mum shaved hers off in the 80s and then someone wasn't allowed to touch mine.
09:41So.
09:41No, they're perfect though.
09:43They fit your face beautifully.
09:45They fit my face beautifully.
09:46Yeah, they do though.
09:47So lovely.
09:48Thank you so much.
09:48During lockdown, I was like, I'm going to grow mine out and I'm going to be using it.
09:50And this was it.
09:52Yours are really brilliant.
09:54Yeah, but then a professional makeup artist did this.
09:56But I like a thick, sluggy brow sometimes.
10:01You can watch Bridgerton season three streaming only on Netflix.
10:04Thanks.
10:04Thanks.
10:04Thanks.
10:04Thanks.
