Nurse Shelton
​Fiona MacKinnon

Based in Edinburgh, I feel as if I live in a filmset! I’m usually narrating corporate films and promos. But I love to find myself playing someone else, I’m drawn to old crones, evil nuns, nurses, and ethereal types, love anything with humour and weaving the story together.
