I felt a bit shy about it. Jamie Adams, who makes improvise films in England, had put me in some of his films, and he said, I really think you should. He came to me and two other actors and said I bet you’ve got stories to tell, I bet you have. I said no the first time. And instead, I did a play with Grace off Broadway and then I just couldn’t do it. And then he came to me again and said, I think that Maggie wants you, the producer probably won’t ask you again, like if you say no twice. So then I was like okay, okay. I think if I’d been talking very quietly to somebody thinking nobody else was listening, I would say I would love to direct, but I didn’t have the confidence to.” Ultimately, Dolly Wells is a versatile and accomplished performer who has enjoyed success in both film and television. Wells frequently collaborates with actress Emily Mortimer, her best friend since they were children.

We have shone a light on them and it’s a huge part of British history that hasn’t been explored. I just feel really proud to have been selected, to have been involved in that. I feel so proud when people are sending me messages saying that they’ve gone home for the first time and spoken to their parents about their positive status. And when people are sending you messages saying that they had many friends that died in the eighties and they remember the time or they wish to live in the pink palace, or they’re having dreams about Richie that just fills me with so much pride and joy.”The Devil Wears Prada
