Who does Nina Toussaint-White play in Witness Number 3?

Nina leads the cast as Jodie Packer, a single mum who owns a hairdressers in London.

Jodie becomes a key witness in a murder when she sees a killer lead his next victim to his death.

But Jodie has no idea at the time that the killer is a gang boss, who will do anything to stop Jodie acting as a witness.

She faces threats which begin with cryptic texts and memes to real-life ones that put her and her family in danger.

Nina Toussaint-White says: “This is a story of someone being proud and believing in where she’s from and fighting to the bitter end to uplift it and protect it.”

What has Nina Toussaint-White starred in before Witness Number 3?

The London-born actress studied at the prestigious Italia Conti Academy of Theatre Arts before beginning her impressive acting career.

She began like a lot of British stars – with a guest spot on Casualty!

This was followed by a guest appearance on The Bill a year later.

But it wasn’t until a 2009 appearance in EastEnders that she got her big break.

Nina played a nurse called Sydney Chambers, who comforted Bradley Branning after his split from Stacey Slater.

She returned to the soaps with a recurring role in Emmerdale in 2016 playing Angie Bailey.

Angie was married to Jermaine Bailey, who rocked the Dales by having an affair with 17-year-old Belle Dingle.

She also had a stint as Sophia Verlaine in Holby City as the love interest of Fleur.

You’ll probably recognise her from BBC’s popular mini-series Bodyguard, too.

She played DS Louise Rayburn alongside Richard Madden.

The actress is also well respected for her work in theatre…

She was nominated for Best Performance in a Musical in the 2016 UK Theatre Awards for her role as Tree in The Etienne Sisters.

Nina Toussaint-White appeared as Jane alongside Dominic Cooper in the revival of The Libertine by Stephen Jeffreys at the Theatre Royal Bath.
