Three Little Birds. Sir Lenny Henry Pays Tribute to Jamaican Women Who Crossed the Ocean for Better Lives in the UK. But Was It Better?

Three Little Birds – Yazmin Belo, Rochelle Neil and Saffron Coomber

The devout Hosanna played by Yazmin Belo seeks a husband who is as devoted to God as she is, while Chantrelle, played by Saffron Coomber, dreams of a future as a movie star, the new Elizabeth Taylor. But can their dreams be realised in an environment of Black racism and economic deprivation? What She Said’ Anne Brodie spoke with Belo and Coomber about the aunties’ touching, dramatic story, and inspiring now being told on BritBox. And bonus- the bond of friendship the actors now share.

Three Little Birds is now on BritBox.
