NEW YORK, Sept. 18 (UPI) — Vanessa Emme, known for her roles in “Bloodlands” and “Dublin Murders,” finds inspiration in her character Layla Walsh from Season 2 of “The Chelsea Detective.” Layla, a no-nonsense cop who always speaks her mind, represents how Emme believes many people wish they could be. During a recent phone interview, Emme expressed her admiration for Layla’s candidness and lack of filter, stating that playing such a character is both cathartic and enjoyable.
Emme explains that while Layla is highly skilled and professional in her work, she struggles with filtering her thoughts and emotions. This creates moments of impatience and skepticism when dealing with suspects or witnesses whom she believes to be dishonest. Unlike those who strive for perfection and superficiality, Layla is portrayed as a down-to-earth character, embracing her genuine self and bluntness.
The drama series concludes its second season on Acorn TV, showcasing Layla partnering with Detective Inspector Max Arnold, played by Adrian Scarborough. Together, they tackle various crimes and investigations throughout London’s Chelsea district. Emme promises viewers a faster pace and more excitement this season, as the detectives delve into art galleries, therapists’ offices, and rowing clubs.
Despite its serious crime-solving aspect, “Chelsea Detective” incorporates humor and wit, bringing a refreshing realness to the characters and their interactions. Emme highlights that this show offers a balance between intense investigations and lighthearted moments, making it a captivating and enjoyable watch. She emphasizes that professionals, even in demanding fields, have dimension and comedy in their lives.
Layla’s partnership with Max is a crucial element in the show’s success. Emme describes their relationship as evolving from initial uncertainty to a complementary dynamic. Layla’s instincts and straightforwardness complement Max’s analytical approach, resulting in a perfect collaboration that navigates their investigations effectively.
As Season 2 of “The Chelsea Detective” reaches its conclusion, viewers can anticipate the development of a remarkable bond between Layla and Max. Emme expresses her satisfaction with the pairing, noting their contrasting styles and how they enhance each other’s strengths.
