On television Heather has played Margaret Thatcher in a party political broadcast and Catherine Galbraith in Scottish Television's High Road. On radio she has guested on the Judy Speirs Show for Radio 2. In May 2003 Heather and her husband, who is also an actor, were involved in the biggest and most important production of their lives... the birth of their first child, a boy!
