‘Bad Sisters’ Cast on Shooting That Cliffhanger Boat Scene: ‘I Was Lying There like a Starfish, Floating Away, Going “Help, Help!”‘


As the bodies pile up in Season 2, the cast of 'Bad Sisters' talk through the trials and tribulations of filming at sea.

In Episode 5, which dropped today, three of the remaining bad sisters take a boat ride with the sinister Angelica, played by iconic Fiona Shaw(“Killing Eve,” “Harry Potter”). Shot over four days in the choppy English channel in the middle of winter, the climax of the episode sees Ursula (Eva Birthistle), Bibi (Sarah Greene) and Becka (Eve Hewson) blackmailed by Angelica. Ahead of the episode premiering, Horgan, lead director Dearbhla Walsh and castmembers Eva Birthistle, Sarah Greene and Eve Hewson talked to Variety about how they battled seasickness and near-drowning to film the scene.
