“I haven’t even told many of them, but that was quite a spectacular day on set. All the makeup women were like, ‘Oh my god! It’s Matt from Busted.’

“He’s such a lovely man and he’s so funny in that seen. He’s so good and he was a real treat to work with,” she added.

Missing You is available to stream on Netflix from January 1.
