I’ve only seen her before now in interviews!

She’s always come across as such a professional and an all round top person!

She reminds me of a female Brian Blessed!

I haven’t yet watched GOT (sorry) so never had the privilege of watching her in what 90% of the population has seen her in!

LOVED her tonight hosting Eurovision!

And not forgetting her star turn in Benidorm!

That's how l know her!!! Been bugging me all evening!

Zenana · 14/05/2023 00:04

I've only ever seen her in Benidorm before this evening.

BitOutOfPractice · 14/05/2023 00:08

Magnificent. That’s the only word I can think of for her. Magnificent.

I find her quite mesmerising!

OP you must catch up with Ted Lasso. It’s delightful

Poopoolittlekitten · 14/05/2023 00:09

Bloody love her!

BonnieGlasses · 14/05/2023 00:13

Glad I'm not the only one who'd never heard of her until tonight! I'm not very with it. Grin

I feel the need to watch Ted Lasso now! Can I watch it anywhere that's not Apple TV? I've got too many subscriptions as it is!

Only on Apple TV I’m afraid - maybe you can get a free trial and binge it?

Oysterbabe · 14/05/2023 08:21

I think she's wonderful. Highly intelligent, charismatic, beautiful. What's not to like?

CeeJay81 · 14/05/2023 08:24

I have to agree, she's great in Ted Lasso and was also great last night. We've been enjoying 3 months free Apple TV, offer was on Xbox game pass.

Popsicle42 · 14/05/2023 08:46

Love love love her!
Find a way to watch Ted Lasso. It is an amazing show and she is just fantastic in it.
She’s unquestionably my new girl crush.

Apparently she plays a small role in Les Mis - I think she might be the nasty factory worker who gets Fantine kicked out, so I’m totally watching that today!

Popsicle42 · 14/05/2023 08:49

(Just googled Les Mis and she isn’t the main factory girl, she’s just a random one. Still watching it today!)

ExcaliburBaby · 14/05/2023 09:00

for all the new HW fans - definitely check her out as Lady of the Lake in Spamalot - there’s vids on Youtube!

She's in Sex Education too!

LooseFit · 14/05/2023 09:10

I’d never come across her before Ted Lasso. She is captivating! Gorgeous, smart, funny, fabulous actress and just amazing stage presence.

Loved her on Eurovision. She outshined the other presenters by a mile.

LooseFit · 14/05/2023 09:10

Outshone? Before the grammar police arrest me!

CornishGem1975 · 14/05/2023 09:15

And she can belt out a tune too!

Ladykryptonite · 14/05/2023 09:23

I think you can buy ted lasso as a series

Willmafrockfit · 14/05/2023 09:23

mesmerizing - I agree

Hungrycaterpillarsmummy · 14/05/2023 09:24

I've never heard of her or seen her before. I'm ambivalent towards her.

LadyOfTheCanyon · 14/05/2023 09:30

Didn't know who she was before seeing her last night. She seemed positively Amazonian and completely mesmerising. She was giving me 1980s Brigitte Neilson vibes and I was there for it!

This was our first dance at our wedding Grin (think this video is the original Broadway cast though, not HW).

SundaeLove · 14/05/2023 09:50

Hannah singing with Michael Buble is a lovely watch on YouTube!

I find her very mesmerising having just watched Ted Lasso back to back episodes - best thing I’ve ever watched
