Kevin McKidd Online

FORMER EastEnders beauty Michelle Ryan has revealed she agreed to film hospital drama One Night In Emergency because of Rome hunk Kevin McKidd. Bionic Woman babe Michelle, 25, jumped at the chance to play Trainspotting star Kevin's wife in the dark thriller.

She grinned: "I was attracted because of the writing.... and the chance to work with Kevin.

"He was brilliant. There's a moment when he walks into the hospital and says, 'I want to see my wife' and the all the females on set were like, 'Ahhhh!' "

Michelle plays Kevin's sick wife Penny in the surreal drama, which is based on Homer's Oddysey.

His character Peter embarks on a bizarre journey through a hospital to see his missus, including being robbed by a dodgy cab driver and seduced by a horny nurse.

Kevin - who also plays Dr Owen Hunt in US hospital drama Grey's Anatomy - revealed: "Luckily, knock on wood, I have NEVER spent a night in a hospital. The longest time I've been in one was on this shoot and of course on Grey's Anatomy, although that's just a set.

"We filmed entirely on night shoots in a dank, spooky Victorian hospital in Glasgow, so that was surreal in itself."

LA-based Kevin, 36, admits he's missing Scotland and enjoyed coming back to film the show, which also features fellow Trainspotting star Ewen Bremner and telly veteran David Hayman.

He said: "It was a relief to be among my own again. I shot my first film in Glasgow so it felt like coming home for me, even though I'm from Elgin.

"I was worried the sentiment on set would be, 'Here he comes, the bloke who went off to Hollywood,' but that didn't happen. It was brilliant seeing folk I hadn't seen in ages."

One Night In Emergency is on BBC1 at 9pm on January

Michelle Ryan goes from sunny L.A to Scottish morgue for new role
Dec 27 2009 Steve Hendry, Sunday Mail

WHEN Michelle Ryan became the Bionic Woman, America rolled out the red carpet.

When she came to Scotland to film new BBC drama One Night In Emergency, she got to visit a hospital morgue.

It was a change in circumstance she laughed about with her co-star, Kevin McKidd. Having starred in Journeyman and now Grey's Anatomy, he knew exactly where she was coming from.

Michelle said: "It's funny but I met Kevin when we were both in America. I was doing Bionic Woman and he was doing Journeyman.

"We're in the US, playing leading characters in big productions. We're in huge trailers and it's always really sunny.

"Next minute, we're in Glasgow, he's driving me to rehearsals and it's pouring with rain. We're filming in a deserted hospital in the middle of the night and I'm on my way to visit a morgue.

"It's different, to say the least.

"Everything is just bigger in America, it's as simple as that.

"There is an element of razzle dazzle to it all, I guess, but the sheer scale of it is incredible.

"But it's so nice to have someone like Kevin who has been through the American experience, someone you can talk to about it and go, 'Wow - that was crazy'."

Our favorite Christmas Show Father Ted : A Christmassy Ted.

One of Kevin's First Television appearances was as Father Deegan In A Christmassy Ted - Broadcast 24th December, 1996

Often Father Ted is referred to as Kevin's first professional TV appearance but Kevin had appeared in front of the TV camera before this. Kevin told us recently that he was in FOT (false or true) which was a kids TV show in the UK and his first on camera gig (apparently a very small sketch) he was still in drama school at the time. The second one was  "Only the lonely" (1995) which was a pilot for a Scottish sitcom he did this production before Trainspotting just as he left drama school - Elaine C Smith was the star - (she is a well known Scottish comedy star from shows like Rab C Nesbitt)....  Both of these productions are missing from Kevin's Filmography.

"Ireland's largest lingerie department" in "A Christmassy Ted" is in fact Dunnes Stores in Ennis. The sequence was filmed just before the shopping centre was opened

Fans of  'Grey's Anatomy's' Owen/Cristina romance surely have watched, re-watched and re-re-watched the couple’s big kiss from the last episode, “ Holidaze.” As such, you may think you know everything there is to know about that scorching smooch.

Think again.

I spoke with Kevin McKidd just before he jetted home to Scotland for the holidays, and he shed light on how the pivotal scene was meant to play out as well as shared insight into why Owen kissed Cristina so ardently.
