Olivia Colman on Who do you think you are

[DuggeesWoggle]

She's so fab and smiley, I would love to meet her. They just all seem so naice. I also want her parents' swish Norfolk pad.

I know people who have worked with her and she's as lovely as she comes across.

She’s coming across very well. Phew. Really wanted to like her 😀

Mind you I do struggle to give a shit about other people's family trees, famous or not...

I was just thinking the same. Was watching and thinking how I want her to be my best friend. Love her giggling!

I know someone who knows her and apparently she is LOVELY which is the only thing that is keeping me going in Brexit.

She’s just so nice and excited about everything. When she went over that bridge in Norfolk! 😂

I love this programme it's FASCINATING. There is so much information about us all "out there" if only we knew how to find it.

Oh she's just adorable, isn't she? Closest I've ever come to a girl crush was the scene when she got drunk in "Rev".
Also if you can get hold of it have a listen to her on "Women Talking About Cars" (Radio 4, with Victoria Coren Mitchell). Warm and lively and hilarious.

I'm adding my tuppence worth. I agree with every PP. She was a treat to watch.

I have no interest in this program so gave it a miss but I LOVE Olivia! So great to hear that she seemed lovely

Love her too. I am a huge Who Do You Think You Are fan anyway, and this was a good one - she clearly loved being in India and finding out about her distant ancestors.

I think she'll be great in The Crown too, especially with Helena Bonham Carter as Margaret.

What an interesting episode especially how fab was the Austen -like letter.

I love this programme and thought Olivia Coleman was great last night. What a fascinating story, and I loved the very 'Jane Austen'-like letter about the wife and the harpist lover - ooh er! Looks as though there are some interesting 'subjects' in this series so am looking forward to future episodes.

Bloody love her and love WDYTYA. Fab episode!

Wasn't she lovely? I liked how she says she never goes anywhere and likes being at home in her pyjamas. A woman after my own heart!

On the strength of this thread I've just watched it, she's really lovely. Great episode.

She is really lovely!

It was an interesting one, wasn't it?

Would loved to have known who India Harriet's mum was & how/where IH lived in England.

Sometimes on wdytya interesting people have boring families and people you aren't interested in have interesting families. OC had both. I love the social history bit of wdytya. My family are Indian/Anglo descent so I'm always interested in the history of India. I liked Lee Mack too.

Closest I've ever come to a girl crush was the scene when she got drunk in "Rev"
Christ that was funny. And the follow-up scene the next morning when she has to go with him to play a football match for charity or something. At one point she's in the background, not the focus of the scene, and makes the most half-arsed attempt at sticking her foot near the ball while glowering at him. It's a fabulous bit of acting.

Great episode with Olivia. What an interesting story.
Lee Mack came over nicely.

I had to turn Lee Mack off as he seemed to feel he had to make a joke about everything.

I've just watched Olivia's and I'm CONVINCED she's a Mner

She described herself as "invested"

Will watch. Sounds the opposite of poor Cheryl cole the flattest dullest person ever.
