Who was this woman? It's driving me potty.

I saw her at Stansted airport a couple of weeks ago, so no idea what area of the Uk she lives, but I'm pretty sure she's English.

I recognise her from the telly. Probably around 60. Slim. Nice looking. Not a huge household name but definitely recognisable. Auburn hair, collar/shoulder length. It might have been dyed, but I feel she's probably a natural redhead. A bit freckly.

I think she's maybe been in some long running show like Emmerdale or Holby or something like that. But equally she could be a presenter. It's really bugging me that I can't place her.

Jane Asher?

TwigletsAndRadishes · 27/07/2024 15:21

I can't shake the thought that there is a medical connection. Either because she's in something like Holby, Casualty, Doctors, or because she is a doctor or some sort of health and wellbeing personality.

But that might be a complete red herring.

Melanie Hill?

No, but I almost thought you had it there for a moment. We are getting very close in terms of age and type. This lady had a thinner face and finer, more pointy features. (not that I'm trying to suggest that MH looks like a lumpen peasant or anything.)

Jac from Holly City? No idea how old she is though so hopefully I haven’t offended her!

Back21970 · 27/07/2024 15:33

I was thinking Dr Rosemary but couldn’t remember her name, she is on the telly quite a lot.
