Sex can be an uncomfortable subject for many, but for actors being filmed under the sheets, that discomfort takes on a whole new meaning. That's where the role of an intimacy coordinator comes in. Ita O'Brien has worked on many high-profile TV shows, including Sex Education, Watchmen and Normal People. She explores the narrative of sex, from the way its written about, to its portrayal on-screen, and how we respect the actors who perform often difficult scenes for our entertainment.
