There’s a celeb on the hen do…

[DownThePubWithStevieNicks]

You’re on your work friend’s hen. Turns out her cousin/auntie/pal from uni is a celeb you’ve always liked and thought would be good value on a night out. Who is it?

I’m going with Sharon Horgan. Partly influenced by her characters, admittedly, but she’d hopefully also lend me something cracking to wear.

Sorry if I'm being dim but I've just read up on that film, which looks great btw, but I can't see the connection to Alison Steadman.

This!

Olivia Coleman

Oooh. I'll also take Julia Davis and Alison Hammond

Maggie Smith
Cariad Lloyd
Linda Smith

Zoe Lyons

Not in her Lady Whiteadder guise, I presume? 😄

Rachel Shenton.

I’m 55 and happily married (to a man) but I have such a crush on her.

Wicked child!

snort 😂

Not sure if this has been said as I’m still reading through the thread, but apart from Sharon Horgan who is an excellent choice, I’d love to bump into Anna Farris on a night out!

Oblahdeeoblahdieit was a reference to the Gavin & Stacey episode - I think it’s the Pete & Dawn vow renewal where the night before they have a night in and watch films and there a classic Pam (Alison Sreadnan) moment ref that film

Jo Whiley. I LOVE her.

Jennifer Lawrence

I'd love to add mine, but have to admit that I've never heard of most of these women. Didn't realise that I was so out of touch 🫣

I think I'd choose Cameron Diaz' character in pretty much any of her comedy films

Ruth Jones

Claudia Winkleman

Alice levine

Betty White if I can hang with the dead.

Diane Morgan, definitely!

And Shelagh Fogerty - I suspect she's got a wicked sense of humour.

Rose Byrne. I think she is hilarious. I met her brother at a party once and was desperately hoping he and I would fall in love so that she and I could be sister-in-laws but sadly it was not to be.

Also this exact hen do situation did happen to me in real life and the person was Michelle Monaghan and she was extremely fun,

Mel Giedroyc

Fellow Joan Ranger here. The comments would be outrageous.

I’ve met Shelagh back in the day. What a fantastic lady. Really bright and spot-on.
