I have scary clown hair
So here it is – me with my great new hair. And eyebrows. I have ginger eyebrows. And a very scabby scalp, owing to the fact that I had three or four loads of gloop plopped on my bonce. My husband finds it strangely alluring, but he didn’t see it today – very dry and frizzy. Etheline the hair lady on the movie is going to be delighted – she wanted it super-frizzy and gross. God, I love my job – seriously! Getting paid to dress up and pretend to be other people?...

I had my costume call for “The Good Times are Killing Me” this afternoon and they’re going to dye my hair blonde with nice brown two-month-old roots – I think I’m getting my eyebrows dyed as well.

I think my muffin top is making a guest appearance. I may have to wear a hat...

Blimey charlie – it’s true! I landed a part in a movie of the week with Kelly Rowan – Kirsten Cohen from the OC! (My thirteen-year-old step-daughter will no doubt want an autograph.)

I am a British-born actress and stand-up comic who does lots of voice work (for commercials, cartoons and corporate clients) and sometimes, when I'm very lucky, tv and film. When I was in England I did mostly theatre. Now I'm in Canada I spend the majority of the time writing and performing stand-up. When I'm not making episodes of Talking Bollocks, that is. And that's me for you.
