Comic drama series in which Kathy Burke - writing her first TV series - tells the story of how she became the person she is now, from humble beginnings on the streets of Islington.

Young Kathy harboured a dream to be an actress, but circumstance and her upbringing made it an unlikely dream. Walking And Talking tells stories inspired from her teenage years - time spent skiving from school with her best friend, talking about boys and planning for the future.

The four-part series, entirely written by Burke, follows the success of her short film for Sky1's 2010 Little Crackers series in which she told the story of how a chance meeting with the band The Clash affected her life so deeply.
