Who was this actress??

[BlueWhippetsForever]

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!

Sarah smart?

@TwigletsAndRadishes No, but the right kind of serious demeanour

@Tutorpuzzle it was called knoop I think? More of a takeaway really as only a couple of tables, but you could choose from white all the way too very dark chocolate, we were impressed

Emilia Fox?

@BigPorker Not user famous, but the sort of actress you see in something and think oooo what else have I seen her in. But as I said, we have zero celebrities where we live so this was very unusual for me 😅

@BlueWhippetsForever

Ooh, thanks. There used to be a William Curley chocolate shop/cafe in Richmond but it closed. Will definitely be looking that one up!

Which Richmond… there’s more than one!

Elizabeth Dermot Walsh

Margaret cabourne smith

@TwigletsAndRadishes Ha, definitely not, but loving how you make her sound like she hangs out in cafes waiting for people to start mumsnet threads about her 😆

What sort of fringe? Quite blunt, or softer curtain fringe? Like Alexa Chung?

Jemima Rooper?

Polly Walker, she was in Line of Duty

Keeley hawes

Emily Mortimer

@Left
A short fringe (like only on her forehead) but in a soft way not a blunt way)

Charlie Brooks is that part of the world (or was when I lived there.. I often saw her)

I was thinking Nicola Walker like a few others, from the description of the lady's eyes?

Kristin Scott Thomas

Lena Headey

Jill halfpenny?
