Keeley Hawes

[AnneLovesGilbert]

She’s bloody brilliant isn’t she? Watching her in Line of Duty (no spoilers please!) and she’s doing my head in. One minute she’s so sympathetic and the next she makes me skin crawl. I love her.

I adore her and actually find her stunningly beautiful. AND I love her husband! I don't know why, and I understand how others cant see it. I cant bear Maxine Peake but loads love her. I wonder what it is that makes certain people just click (or not) with certain viewers. Another actress I always love no matter what is Helen McCrory. But I cant stand Suranne Jones. Totally irrational, all of it!

@LittleCandle I think she's really beautiful. Beauty is subjective I suppose isn't it. 😊

She’s played the same role too many times imo. She is cracking in LoD though.

She was great in Traitors as well, if anyone's seen that. Not her usual character.

she's absolutely gorgeous, has a mesmerising face. She's also not had work done (because her face moves and has age appropriate lines) and this just adds to her beauty.

It's Olivia COLMAN. COLMAN. She is excellent in the rather under-the-radar Rev.

I like Keeley H, although I only know her from LoD and Bodyguard. I can't face watching Summer of Rockets; Poliakoff dramas are always so underwhelming.

I think she's really beautiful

She is in some parts; others such as in LoD and Traitors she isn't. In the latter, her character deliberately makes herself look plain so as to be taken seriously in her profession.

Are there any really good actors (especially women, I suppose) who always look good?

It's Colman, bloody hell, if you feel she is overexposed etc, have you not yet seen how her name is spelt? It is Colman. Like the mustard.

YES, midsomer!

Love KH, - she also has superb comic timing when required. Unusual fact - she appeared in Our Mutual Friend and then a totally different series called Mutual Friends.

I also love OC - looking forward to the Crown!

I thought it was Hawkes until recently

I have way more to focus on in my life than how to spell the name of an actress.

I have no difficulty spelling patronising, however.

Wow twinkly do you need a lie down?

I don't quite think my comment was worthy of a "wow"

I didn't call anyone a miserable cunt, for example.

As for lying down, I'm good thanks 🙂

. Are you on glue?

It's like MN bingo 😉

She is very talented and I love that she is not stick thin and looks fantastic.
WIll always remain below Gillian Anderson for general hotness and broadness of performance ability though.

How can a thread about the lovely Keeley go quite so awry?! 😂

Who called someone a miserable cunt? What in the name of Keeley is going on?

Well quite. The thread isn't even about sodding Olivia What'sherface.

Errr.

Back to my ode to la Hawes, in LOD she’s balanced vulnerable with terrifying, sympathetic with contemptible and I stand by my love for her Going to find other stuff with her in watch. Sue me Hawes haters!

Appreciate the thread is about Keeley (Denton is a marvellous character) but what are views on Stephen Graham, if I may derail in the name of art?

Stephen Graham is top of my other list- bloody amazing actor!

She was brilliant in Spooks too. Always seems a thoroughly decent person. Happy to take the piss out of herself. Happy beaming smile.

And to the poster who describes her as ‘anything but’ beautiful I would be interested in who you do think is beautiful then .

She was a model before she became an actress I believe and was in a couple of pop videos. Playing Lindsay Denton showed she didn't just play posh gals, although Ashes to Ashes was before that. The only thing she's done which I didn't like was the annoying coffee advert with a vintage style bike in it, if anyone remembers that?

I wanted to look like her in Ashes to Ashes. She totally owned 80s glam.
I love her and also her husband. He was amazing in that drama he did where he played a paedophile.
