Please PLEASE help me identify this actress

[Carpetmoffman]

Someone I work with has a celebrity voice twin and it’s keeping me awake at night because I can’t quite place her.

Please someone put me out of my misery!!! Please!!

She’s a British actress, TV not film. Dark blonde. Late 40s? Early 50s? Raspy voice. Kind of protruding front teeth just ever so slightly. Plays no nonsense characters. Smoker??? Southern voice - London but I can’t place it.

Plz solve my mystery

Sarah Parish?

Yessssssssssssssssss @Artesia it’s Alison Newman!!! Omg thank you!!!

Amanda Redfern?

Sounds like Sarah Parrish. Husky voice

Tamsin Outhwaite?

Is it worth looking at Eastenders/ casualty/ the bill/ whatever cast lists if it's driving you crazy!

Maggie O’Neill?

Too slow typing, glad you got there!

I’m very pleased with myself, as I was also going to say Alison Newman!

I once correctly identified Joan Armatrading from the description “A bit like a black Annie Lennox; she sings a song that goes ‘a woo woo’”
