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!

Very off topic but I spotted her at the Ally Pally farmers market once so she clearly lives in that neck of the woods!

Completely unrelated person but I saw Gabrielle Glaister at the airport recently getting on the same flight as me to Luton. Was driving me mad trying to figure out who she was for a while until I placed her!

Shona from the High Life - oh dearie me

Nicola Stephenson? I always see her on the tv and wonder where I know her from. I think she's only about 50 though as I am 42 and she was playing a youngish nurse in holby when I was a teenager and then she was playing a mum of teenagers in Waterloo road when I had toddlers.
