Joanna Page wants a role in 'Emmerdale'.

The 'Gavin and Stacey' actress likes the sound of the Yorkshire-based soap after hearing her husband James Thornton - who plays farmer John Barton - talk about how much he is enjoying it.

She said: "It could be quite good fun because James says it's just gorgeous filming out in the fields.

"I'd be able to do a good northern accent if I was in 'Emmerdale'."

Joanna and James have relocated to Yorkshire while James films the show and she admits they are both enjoying the change of scenery from the capital.

She added: "He loves it, he's having a brilliant time. That's where he's from, so it's really nice for him to go back home again. And I'm loving it because we're renting a house up there, and it's really nice to get out of London and go up there with the dog for a bit."

Joanna thinks James makes a convincing farmer and has been tuning in to see him regularly since he joined the cast earlier this year.

She added: "I think he was born to play the part of the farmer - he looks amazing and it's nice having a really young family, who are all really attractive as well.

"I've got it recorded so I won't watch it for a couple of weeks, and then I have to watch about 24 episodes, so I go through it then."
