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.

Has anyone said Claire Skinner yet? I saw her in Sainsbury’s in Muswell Hill years ago so presume she lives in/ around London!

Could it be a local news presenter/reporter/weathergirl hence most of us have never heard of her?

Yvette fielding has just popped into my head! No idea why as I can’t really recall what she looks like…

She's a bottle ash blonde.

There again, the bottle gives choices.

Not sure if she has already been mentioned, but there is a local bbc midlands today news presenter with reddish hair? Her name is Joanne Malin?

😂I've been wracking my brain to think if it's just someone I know from something else entirely, but she didn't seem to know me, even though we spoke very briefly, so I'm guessing not.

Edited

What was her accent?
