British actress
She became interested in acting after seeing the TV drama "Taggart" being filmed as she walked home from school one day. A teacher encouraged her to take classes at Edinburgh Acting School. After high school, she moved to London, trained at the Sylvia Young theatre school, and took a postgraduate course at Rada.
She and her twin brother Colin were adopted at age three by Martin Siller, a cabinet-maker, and his wife, Ann. They were reunited with their younger half-brother and two older half-sisters in the 1990s after searching for their family.
