Help! I saw an actress in a hot chocolate cafe today and I cannot for the life of me place her. It was lunchtime today and I've been trying to work out what I recognise her from with no luck 😣

Please help me!

I think I recognise her from TV, she's British, late 40s/50ish (disclaimer I'm rubbish at guessing ages!). Brunette with a fringe, big eyes, beautiful. I want to say she's been in a legal/medical/detective type programme. Serious not comedy. Don't think period dramas.

Argh. I know that's spectacularly vague but if anyone instantly knows who I mean pleeeaaaase put me out of my misery 😆

Thank you!

Or Caroline Catz?

*imhavinghoops Youranus *

Thank you but neither of those...she one of those actresses that's recognisable to me but I don't think I'd necessarily recognise her by name only?

No sorry, but thank you. Doesn't usually have a bob, at least shoulder length straightish hair

Neve McIntosh? Not sure if she has a fringe though.

ChristmasFox · 15/12/2024 18:56

Annabel Scholey?

BlueWhippetsForever · 15/12/2024 18:56

Kaminari FrannyScraps

Less of a household name than those two (sorry to her! She's great I just don't think I'd recognise her name)

Ha, no, sorry

She has a serious demeanor on tv I'm sure. Well groomed, not really tall.

No sorry. The right kind of piercing eyes

Charlene McKenna? Irish accent would be clear though so that might be a daft suggestion.

VacuumPacked · 15/12/2024 19:00

was it Helen Baxendale

Gostnoster · 15/12/2024 19:01

Helena Bonham Carter?

BlueWhippetsForever · 15/12/2024 19:01

Annabel Scholey
No, sorry

Argh this is so annoying 😆🤪 I'm sure she's British (English I think) from English dramas.
