´óÏó´«Ã½

Calling herself Josephine, Josie D'Arby auditions to be a C´óÏó´«Ã½ presenter in this screentest. There are birthday cards to start off with, then D'Arby introduces herself and confesses that she's still studying at Rada and has come to the audition in secret. Next up, it's the interview spot and she poses questions to C´óÏó´«Ã½ presenter and 'Broom Cupboard' host Toby Anstis. Finally, there's also a surprise extra guest, who challenges D'Arby to a "joke-off".

Josie D'Arby joined C´óÏó´«Ã½ where she began by reading out the birthday cards in the mornings. In 2002, she became a member of the cast of police drama Merseybeat and has juggled acting and presenting roles ever since.
