Unforgotten star talks about real life sister on show
The stars of Unforgotten graced The One Show on Friday, dishing out behind-the-scenes gossip from the beloved ITV crime drama. Sinead Keenan, who joined the cast in the last series as DCI Jessica James, revealed a surprising family tie within the storyline.
Sinead took over from Nicola Walker's much-loved character DCI Cassie Stuart, who met a tragic end in the fourth series. Her character, Jessie, initially clashed with Cassie's former colleague DI Sunny Khan (played by Sanjeev Bhaskar), and as the plot thickened, viewers learned of turmoil in Jessie's personal life when her husband Steve James (portrayed by Andrew Lancel) was caught in an affair that hit too close to home.
On The One Show, Sinead disclosed that the actress playing her on-screen sister Debbie, entangled in the affair, is actually her real-life sister, Grainne Keenan.

BBC)Host Roman Kemp, alongside Clara Amfo, expressed his astonishment: "This is such a mind boggle moment but in the last series your character Jess finds out that her husband is having an affair with her sister but your sister in the show is played by your actual sister in real life. Safe to say, not real-life husband? That would be horrendous! But how fun is it to play this out with her?"
To which Sinead responded with enthusiasm: "Oh it's great, it's great - thankfully that has never happened in real life so it was lovely. We've been in the same shows through our careers but our characters never met, crossed paths, so yeah that was real good fun."

BBC)Sanjeev Bhaskar, who has captivated audiences with his portrayal of DI Sunny Khan in the hit cold case drama since its debut in 2015, also chatted about series 6 which starts on ITV1 on February 9, reports Wales Online.
However, it's not just his performance that has intrigued fans; Sunny's mysterious black backpack has been a topic of fascination. Sanjeev, 61, disclosed: "From the second series onwards, I asked the costume department to fill it with stuff, but don't tell me what's in it."
The new series begins with the discovery of suspected human remains. Jess and Sunny are called to the crime scene at Whitney Marsh, abandoning their evening plans, much to the annoyance of Jess’ husband Steve.
Dr Balcombe’s expert analysis of the human spine shows that the remains are relatively recent, and she believes the body was already dismembered when it was dumped. Armed with this knowledge, Jess and Sunny begin to search the area believing that other body parts may not be too far away.
As the investigation unfolds, viewers will be introduced to a whole host of new intriguing characters. MyAnna Buring stars as Melinda Ricci, an outspoken television commentator based in Ireland; Max Fairley is Martin Baines, an autistic man who lives with his mother in Kent; Elham Elas plays Asif Syed, an Afghan training for his UK citizenship test; and Victoria Hamilton is Juliet Cooper, a history lecturer and faculty head at a London University.
