THIS IS YOUR LIFE - Julia Watson, actress, was surprised by Michael Aspel while filming an episode of the BBC medical drama series Casualty in Bristol.
Julia, who was born in Wales but grew up in Derby, studied English and Drama at Exeter University. Her first job was with a community theatre in Byker, Newcastle Upon Tyne, before working with the Roundabout Theatre in Education company at Nottingham Playhouse.
