I know MN is fab at this sort of detective work, so here goes...

She's maybe 40's, slightly husky voice, sharp dark bob with fringe. I can picture her smartly dressed and saying something like "for f*/k sake (insert man's name)". more likely TV than film I think.

Reason being I attended a new yoga class and thought I knew the teacher, but I think she just looks & sounds exactly like this actress, but now I want to know who she is! Grin

Rachel Stirling has a husky voice, is dark and may well have been cursing her partner in Detectorists.

Not a really sharp bob but I'm quite sure she says a lot of for fucks sake in the Gentlemen. Grin
