Actor watched darts instead of her Netflix show
Catherine AyersA Welsh actor who starred in one of Netflix's most popular shows of the new year said her love of the darts distracted her from watching herself.
Catherine Ayers plays Nia in Harlan Coben's latest book adaptation Missing You.
The thriller follows a detective as she uncovers the truth about her fiance's disappearance.
But Ayers, engrossed by Luke Littler's historic first victory, found herself watching the darts instead.
Netflix"I filmed this around this time last year, but then life moves on, and all of a sudden you're on this hit show," she told Radio Wales Breakfast.
One of the highlights of filming was meeting her idol Steve Pemberton - one of the creators of Bafta award-winning series Inside No. 9.
"That was the most star struck that I've ever been. He was lush," she said.
Ayers, who also featured in drama Keeping Faith, found the whole process extremely exciting, but admitted it took a "couple of days" after its release before she watched it herself.
"I was obsessed with the darts and that finished on 3 January. So Missing You had to hang on until after the darts."
She enjoyed it so much it now feels like there is a "massive gap" in her life.
As presenter Catrin Heledd suggested, a role as "Luke Littler's girlfriend in a biography of his life" might be able to fill that void.
