INTERVIEW WITH TAMZIN OUTHWAITE

INTERVIEW WITH TAMZIN OUTHWAITE

“There’s a perception of me as some kind of ball-breaking bitch, because those are the kind of characters I play, but that’s not who I am,” protests Tamzin Outhwaite, before pausing. and wait a bit. ‘Well, not all the time.’ She smiles, but the smile, while genuine enough to begin with, loses momentum and fades before it reaches her eyes.

Most audiences think 43-year-old Outhwaite is sexier, sassy and street-wise, but it’s all about semantics. In truth, although she is glamorous and svelte, she does look slightly frayed around the edges.

It’s the final two weeks until her incisive black comedy about parenting mores, Breeders, opens in the West End and she’s at that manic stage where she can’t seem to cram in the lines as fast as she has to. . “If I don’t do a bit of theater at least once a year, I feel exhausted and hungry,” she says wryly. “But then I find myself in the rehearsal period and it is as terrifying as it is nourishing. TV is very instantaneous, theater is much more free, but you are really alone on stage and in control of your own performance.

Right now, Outhwaite is all over our screens – and on the front of Radio Times. Sure, she’s playing to her “ball-busting bitch” (or BBB) credentials on New Tricks, the likable, old-fashioned cop show. But viewers who saw the former EastEnders actress on last week’s edition of Who Do You Think You Are? There is no doubt that she has another side, thoughtful, introspective and sweet like the vanilla gelato that her Italian immigrant great-grandfather sold at his ice cream parlor in County Durham, before being interned in a World War II prison camp.

When she found out the details of her humiliating incarceration on the Isle of Man as an ‘enemy national’, the mother-of-two was reduced to tears. Later, she tried to make ice cream and unwittingly doused herself with it.

The fact that his ancestral drama was selected for the program (Michael Parkinson’s family tree was memorably dismissed as too boring) is in itself a reflection of his success, in a business where ex-soap stars have often struggling to step out of the long shadows cast by even longer-running dramas.

There was Out of Control and Red Cap, Hotel Babylon and Fixer. As Mel in EastEnders, she was, rather unfairly, married first to Ian Beale and then to Steve Owen. She slept with all the men in Albert Square before she was kidnapped and then fled to Portugal, the door thankfully left open for a return that comes at a time when the BBB is in Albert’s future need Square.

“I never wanted to be famous and live my life under the glare of advertising,” she says. “I just wanted to be an actress; it all depends on the job. I’m not even terribly ambitious,” she adds with a laugh. “I always dreamed of being in Cats, but when the opportunity came up and I was offered a role, I declined because I was doing something else. If you can’t even bother to achieve your life’s ambition, what hope is there? »

His self-deprecation isn’t quite washed away; the daughter of Walford (more correctly, Ilford in Essex) who attended Sylvia Young Theater School and then the London Studio Center is a grafter, who for many years sabotaged the likes of Oliver! and fat.

We have met before, Outhwaite and I, but under happier circumstances. In 2010, she took the helm of Sweet Charity, a role she brought not only warmth and vulnerability, but unexpectedly complex. Her eldest daughter, Florence, by her then-husband Tom Ellis (aka Gary de Miranda), was just two years old. It was a difficult, exhausting and exhilarating concert, but despite all her fatigue, she was beaming with the fulfillment of motherhood.

“At the time, I wanted Flo to see me in something, so she was taken to Sweet Charity,” she recalled. “When the curtain rose, I was in the spotlight in a waiting position; she glanced up and shouted, “Mom! She’s my mom” and everyone turned around and laughed. It lasted seven whole seconds and had to be removed. Now I know why actors love voice animations and read bedtime stories on CBeebies so much; it is so that their children can see them in something. ‘

Fast forward four years: Florence is now six and a little sister, Marnie, two. But the seven-year marriage is over; Outhwaite divorced last year. “It’s tough working as a single parent, but I’m lucky to have time when I’m home and a huge circle of friends and family, although my biggest extravagance is babysitting. ‘kids,’ she says. “It’s not like I’m struggling financially…my hats off to those who have this burden of worry as well.”

The tabloid’s account was that Ellis confessed to a brief infidelity and she instantly shut him out. Reading between the lines, the reality seems quite different.

“I can’t talk about it,” she said, looking pained. “Of course there’s a part of me that wants to set the record straight, but I don’t want to post anything on the internet anymore for my kids to end up reading. If the price for it is seen in an unflattering light, then that’s the one I’m willing to pay. ‘

One day they will know the truth, she said quietly, but it will come from her and be told to them face to face. Outhwaite admits she’s still trying to find her balance, but she’s not one to brood. “I’m the kind of person who makes the most of things,” she says. “I will always find a way to make things work, if I can. All I can say is that I believe I would have done anything to keep us together as a family, but that’s not what happened. ‘

She lives with the children in a leafy part of North London, where her eldest daughter attends public school. She wants them to learn musical instruments, learn languages, and be creative, but is ambivalent about a career on stage.

“Comedy is too difficult a career for your children to be exposed to criticism, judgment and the terrible feeling of rejection,” she says. “But given that I make a living off of something that I love, it would be rather hypocritical of me to actively discourage them.”

If they inherit even half of his work ethic, it will serve them well. ‘I think there is no excuse for being bored, wandering around, being lazy,’ she cries. “I always crave boredom – but in reality, I never allow it in my life. I juggle and juggle. I can relax – I relax – but it has to be programmed. In a yoga class, I’m completely zen, but I would never sit down or watch TV just to pass the time. ‘

By her own admission, she’s not just a cushion and an image smoother, but an entire room rearranger – just not a practical Kirstie Allsopp housewife. “I love interior design; if I wasn’t an actress, that’s what I would be doing,” she says. “I recently bought some fabric swathes and a sewing machine and started to sew cushion covers with a lot of energy and enthusiasm. I had only done four when it suddenly occurred to me, ‘This is boring!’. It wasn’t the making of cushion covers, it was the design aspect that appealed to me the most; how spaces are created and how mood can be affected by lighting and color. »

Outhwaite is confident her own mood will lighten once she’s mastered her lines, and Breeders, who co-stars ex-Coronation Street actress Angela Griffin, is ready to perform. She plays half of a same-sex couple anguished over their desire to have a baby. “It’s a great piece. There is a depth and a darkness that, paradoxically, brings out a lot of humor,” she says. ‘Once this starts and my days are mine, I can focus on exercise, getting Flo ready to go back to school and real life.’

Real life may have been tough over the past year, but Outhwaite was never one to back down from a challenge. “Everything will be fine in the end. And if they’re not well, it’s not the end,” she smiles. And this time it reaches his eyes – and stays there.
