I was sat behind an actress in a literary talk last week, and ever since then I've been trying to remember what she'd been in on TV. This is a real long shot, as details are sketchy at best buy here goes:

Tall, elegant and slim

Highlighted/blonde hair (well done, not nasty highlights)

Plays a well spoken lady

in her early 40s?

In a fairly regular role (eg seen her more than once as a character) but not long running (eg 2+ years)

Modern day setting (not Heartbeat or the like)

Any ideas?

Thanks

    All it took was one flash of inspiration, and a quick google and I've got it!!!!!!!!!!

    YAY.

    Thank God.

    And to put you all out of your misery

    And no, I didn't recognise her real name either

    Karen Drury

    better known as Susannah from Brookside

    So to recap:

    Blonde hair - yes

    Slim and elegant - yes

    'Fluffy' drama eg soap - yes

    mid -40's - DOB 1958 so not far off.

    evening not daytime TV - yes

    last couple of years - errrr no apart from one-off roles

    Thanks for all your help.

    I recognise her from watching Brookside a long time ago but would never have known her real name. Strangely, according to IDMB the last thing she was in was Heartbeat!

    Oh yes I remember her - didn't Max push her down the stairs? Wonder where he is now actually!

    Glad you solved the mystery Smiley smile

    I love a mystery solved (although I'm gutted you've never seen Midsomer Murders). So what did you google in the end to get the golden answer?
