Her performance led the young actress to multiple appearances in numerous television series, including the very popular “Emmerdale” (1992), but it was in 1993 when she became known to the public after playing the role of lesbian Beth Jordache in th Channel 4 TV series “Brookside”, remaining in the series until 1995, the same year winning the National Television Award for the most popular actress.

She then participated in two other plays in London: “Lulu” and “Breakfast at Tiffany’s”. She was one of the three female actresses alongside Rachel Weisz and Catherine McCormack in the drama “The Land Girls”, which also created a strong impression, and although the film did not meet with success outside of England, it allowed her to embody the wife of Ewan McGregor in the drama film “Rogue Trader” (1999), and then in “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” (1999) with Michelle Pfeiffer.

In 2009, Friel lent her traits to the young and seductive student Holly Cantrell in the comedy adventure “Land of the Lost”, starring with Will Ferrell, however, the film was a real critical and commercial failure. In 2010, the actress starred with Colin Farrell and Keira Knightley in “London Boulevard” and with Bradley Cooper in “Limitless” (2011). She was also shot under the direction of Woody Allen in “You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger” (2011). Recently, she starred in the thriller film “I.T.” by John Moore.
