Please help me remember dark haired British actress!

[5hell]

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!

Lord Farquaad

Zoe Wannamaker

Stirling Gallacher?

Diane Morgan

Kate O'Mara ?

@GreenCat44

Holly Aird maybe

OMG!!

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!

I watch/watched waking the dead, so makes sense too

"for f**ks sake Boyd"

I am soooooo bad with celeb names I had to google every single suggestion on this thread to see if if was her, so apologies for the slow responses!

i was beginning to think my brain had made her up, or would become confused by all the pics and I'd never figure it out, but when her pic popped up I got a wave of relief & thrill of recognition...hooray!

"for fucks sake Boyd"

I wish I'd watched mor of Waking the Dead now

Holly Aird? I didn’t recognise the name and haven’t seen her in anything except for this -

Ohhh I stand corrected! Record timing for a resolution 👏👏👏

Amanda Donahue ! Husky voice

Had to search for her

@MarineBlue33

Fay Ripley when she had dark hair

I can just imagine her saying 'For Fuck's Sake, Daddy Pig, stop being such a knob'.

Weirdly not seen Holly Aird for ages but she's in Four Lives which I watched last night and now she gets a mention today!
