Kin's Yasmin Seky: 'I was really anxious - I had imposter syndrome'

As Yasmin Seky returns for a second season of Kin, she recalls the Facebook message that led to her securing the role – and explains why she won’t let go of her 9 to 5 day job just yet.

Yasmin Seky, star of the returning Kin: “You want it to be spontaneous. If you rehearse the feeling so much, then you go on set, it feels like you’re beating a dead dog.”

24-year-old Kin actor Yasmin Seky is nothing like her character, Nikita, girlfriend of Eric ‘Viking’ Kinsella (Sam Keeley). While snakeskin and leather is the norm for Nikita, Yasmin is muted in a jumper and what I presume are jeans (although you never can tell over Zoom - perhaps the thigh high boots are out of view).

The mood in this series has shifted, she says, and we should expect things to get darker.
