Join Elisabeth Dermot Walsh - known as scheming Dr Zara from Doctors - as she explores the stories of actors who either started in soaps, ended up there, or just briefly passed by. With the Doctors practise closing its doors after 24 years, Elisabeth has hung up her stethoscope and is ready to take you behind the scenes of the world of soap - full of drama, intrigue, and unforgettable characters.
For many actors, the world of ‘continuing drama’ is where it all began. It’s a place that shaped their craft, their careers and their lives. A stint ‘at the rockface’ of television can be a pivotal experience in an actor’s life.
In each episode, Elisabeth chats with actors past and present to uncover their journeys and the impact of those iconic roles. Chicken Soap for the Soul is a dive into the highs, lows, and unexpected twists that make soaps so special - both in front of and behind the camera. Tune in each week for your dose of heart, humour, and a touch of drama.

Chicken Soap for the Soul with Elisabeth Dermot Walsh and Special Guest Carli Norris
On this week’s episode of Chicken Soap for the Soul, we are joined by the very funny, Rada trained and prolifically talented actor, Carli Norris. Carli has not only had regular roles in no less than four different soaps, she also appeared in classical theatre, comedies, cop shows and even Panto.
Elisabeth and Carli talk about being a National Treasure (at least in King Charles’ books), lying on your cv and learning the full role of Elisa Doolittle in one weekend. Plus, there’s that merkin story. Hold on to your teacups; we’re afraid this is not a very ‘clean’ episode…
Carli is currently starring in the hilarious and heartfelt Menopause The Musical 2, which is still touring until June 1st. Please go see it, it’s brilliant. For more information and tickets, visit https://musicalsontour.co.uk/menopause-the-musical-2/
