The comedy series My Fair Nanny was released in 2004. Anastasia Zavorotnyuk played the main female role in it, and her partners were Sergey Zhigunov, Boris Smolkin, Lyubov Polishchuk, Alexandra Nazarova, Olesya Zheleznyak and other famous artists.
Olga Prokofieva, who played the role of Zhanna Arkadievna, said that at first she and Zavorotnyuk earned less than others. “Nastya and I had the lowest fees.” Even artists invited for a small episode received more. When we became friends with Serezha Zhigunov, he teased us: “It is written on your forehead that you girls can deceive! The first contract was signed for almost a year, and all this time we earned the minimum, “complained the artist.
The actresses also had to shoot in not exactly the best conditions, they didn’t have a normal dressing room and women’s toilet. “Before the winter we had “convenience”, sorry, they were on the street. Then when the frosts came, they took pity on us and invented some kind of indoor toilet,” said Olga in an interview with 7 Days.
According to the Honored Artist of Russia, the filming of the series took place in a huge pavilion, but their dressing room with Anastasia was small and one for two. There was a small table and a sofa in the room.
When the series became popular, Zhigunov took the partners under his wing. He assured that now the whole country knows them and they can make good money from advertising. And the actor also liked to surprise his colleagues: he could take him to a restaurant at his own expense or bring a live Christmas tree for the New Year.
On the set of the series, real feelings arose between Sergey and Anastasia. Because of Zavorotnyuk, the actor left his wife, but in the end they broke up anyway. Žigunov returned to his ex-wife Věra Noviková. They married a second time, but in 2020 the marriage broke up. Now the artist is married to Victoria Vorozhbitova, who is called a copy of Anastasia.
The acting role of the nanny Vika married the figure skater Pyotr Chernyshov. The actress is currently battling cancer.
