Tough one this. I dont watch that much TV, but I like to remember faces etc. I dont think I've ever known her name.

Basically trying to find the name of an actress I saw over the weekend in London. Nothing important and she's not particularly well known, but now I've mentioned it to a friend she wants to know too. It's bugging me that I dont know what she's been in nevermind her name:

English
Blonde, I think natural.
45-ish.
Slim.
Attractive.
Well spoken (?).

I dont realy know what she's been in, but here's what I think/guess:

Not in a soap.
Has played a 'well spoken' and serious (rather than playful) character.
Sitcom perhaps.
BBC perhaps.
Supporting rather than main actress.

..I thought she could have been on Absolutely Fabulous but looking on the Wikipedia page and the actor/actress list I cant find her.

I wont get it from just a name, so if pics could be posted I'd appreciate it..

Cheers, Greg.

It would have been easier for us if you took a snap on your mobile....

Not Claire Skinner, but appreciate the effort. Thanks.

The location of the potential sitcom (which I've probably got wrong) was a home/house setting rather than a place of work.

Cheers.

Not Imogen Stubbs, probably slightly less known than her.

Again, thanks.

Erm, yes I think. smile

Good work, and thank you.

I still cant work out what I've seen her on, after looking on Wikipedia it could be Smack The Pony or more recently 'Miranda'.

Regardless, thanks to all.
