Yep, I was thinking the self same thing as I was watching the trailers. It was a case of is it her or not? Of course I had to check IMdb just to make sure. Saw the first episode and enjoyed it; taped last nights and already set to record the last one.

She has been in loads of stuff, just "google" her.(on the internet , before any of you filthy lot think that "Googleing her" is more than looking her up)

IMDB has a a filmography in their biog of her.

I think she reminds me of someone else, as I haven't seen any of the films she's been in. For me Jane Eyre has to be Ruth Wilson.

I saw her first in a series called Demons where the last van Helsing was a schoolboy and she was his bit of squeeze as it were. She also popped up (and out for that matter) in the Jeremy Irons version of the Borgias as Lucrezia (?). Can't be ar*ed to check IMdB on that one.

Quite right - Lucrezia Borgia

As proof, here is Il famiglia Borgia - Lucrezia Borgia, Cesare Borgia, Rodrigo Borgia, Juan Borgia

That's it - The Borgias - I knew I'd seen that face before. Thanks for that - mystery solved.

To quote, elsewhere, on this Forum; "Bootiful Bridge"

It obviously got me thinking and Googling...



Then there's this one, titled "Bridge elegance"



Then I typed "curvaceous bridge" and I got this



Although further down the page was also this



Or if we're playing 'The Borgias Top Trumps', I'll see your Holliday Grainger with my Emmanuelle Chriqui  :D
