Sheridan Smith plays Rosie Molloy

Rosie Molloy is played by the wonderful Sheridan Smith!

The complicated addict is trying to give up everything whilst balancing her father’s newly diagnosed illness, the possibility of losing her job, and all her other friendships and relationships.

Sheridan describes Rosie as: “One of the funniest characters I’ve ever played. Rosie is single, she’s got a great family, is very much a career girl, has just been promoted at work, and seems to have it all.

“But, at the same time, she does not have it all. She’s a very complex character, because she is suffering the illness of addiction.

“I think everybody will know a Rosie in real life or have something in common with Rosie or even be like Rosie, so I think viewers will really relate to her.”

What age is Sheridan Smith?

Sheridan was born on June 25 1981.

She is currently 41 years old.

That makes her just 16 years younger that Ardal O’Hanlon, 57, who plays her father, Conall, on the show, and 19 years younger than Pauline McLynn, 60, who plays her mother Win.

Where is she from?

Sheridan was born in Epworth in Lincolnshire.

She studied dance at the Joyce Mason School of Dancing in Scunthorpe from an early age, where she developed a passion for performing.

Why did Sheridan Smith leave Starstruck?

Sheridan began judging the ITV talent show Starstruck earlier in 2022.

The show saw super-fans perform as their idols on the show.

It was announced, however, that Sheridan would be replaced by popstar Shania Twain after just one series.

Sheridan said that she left the show due to “scheduling conflicts”.

So it was likely that she was filming great shows like Rosie Molloy Gives Up Everything and wasn’t able to commit to the talent show.

We’ll miss her on Starstruck!

Why did she leave Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps?

One of Sheridan’s best-known roles was on the sitcom Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps.

She played Janet on the popular Manchester-set BBC series, but left the show after nine years in 2009.

Sheridan left along with TPOLAAPOC creator Susan Nickson after the series 8 finale.

In series 9, the show was rebooted with new cast members and new writers, but failed to reach the success that it did with Sheridan and Susan at the helm!

Susan Nickson said this after the show’s cancellation: “I wholeheartedly believe it’s the right decision for us all to move on.”

Of course, Sheridan starred opposite current Strictly star Will Mellor on the show.
