Not Going Out star Katy Wix takes on fast food in new series Fried: 'People thought it was a real chicken shop'
Katy Wix is best known for playing the nice-but-dim character Daisy in Not Going Out, and she will next be seen taking the lead in BBC Three's new sitcom Fried.
The comedy centres around a group of employees at a typical fried chicken shop, an environment that Wix herself doesn't know much about.
"It's a world I'm not familiar with, I'll be honest with you," she told Digital Spy. "I don't think I've ever been in a fried chicken shop, I'll be honest, before this!
"Maybe I've just never been that pissed before, to wander in! But I thought 'oh, that sounds like a really good idea', and I know that there was something on Channel 4 wasn't there? It was a documentary, and I wonder if that inspired the idea in the writers' heads, I don't know. Because, that was amazing as well, that was full of all human life!
