Redman is badly scarred on her upper left arm as a result of an accident when she was 15 months old.[3] She was scalded with a pan of boiling turkey-and-vegetable soup and suffered third-degree burns to 75% of her body. Her arm was the only part of her body permanently affected, but the trauma was so severe that she was pronounced clinically dead at the Queen Victoria Hospital in East Grinstead, Sussex.[4]

Redman trained at the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School.[5]

In 1984, she appeared as Marina in the BBC Shakespeare series production of Pericles, Prince of Tyre opposite Mike Gwilym.
