Over the Hills and Far Away Zusammenfassung

Over the Hills and Far Away: My Life as a Teletubby Nikky Smedley

Say 'Eh-oh!' to Nikky Smedley and Laa-Laa

Over the Hills and Far Away follows Nikky through the Teletubbies years, from her role as a bistro table during her audition to the show's international success and the accompanying hounding by the press.

In this warm, funny, affectionate look back at life on the Teletubbies set, Nikky reveals all, including tales about dogs and asthma, raging arguments about fruit, and the games the cast and crew played to amuse themselves during long shoots in their massive costumes.

Join Nikky and Laa-Laa on their extraordinary journey from the very beginning to handing the torch to another performer for the next generation.

Über Nikky Smedley

Nikky Smedley has spent her career trying to avoid what her parents called 'a proper job'. This doesn't mean she hasn't worked hard. Running her own dance company for twenty years, she staged the UK's first piece of vertical dance and, playing God, created and destroyed the world on quantum and geographic scales. After Teletubbies, she worked behind the scenes in children's TV for a further decade and currently writes and performs stories for young children and grown-ups. Nikky is a highly sought-after conference speaker and still choreographs, though these days she jumps up and down less than she once did.
