    Apropos her performance in "Much Ado About Nothing" - I was in the cinema getting ready to watch her performance in that play when they announced the Queen's death live on screen. They gave a minutes silence, played the National Anthem where half the audience stood up and half sat awkwardly, and then they gave an absolute barnstormer of a performance. If they ever replay it then I thoroughly recommend seeing it.

    Brydon never far from the centre of his own universe. She mentions where they first met and then it's all about him, and more about him later working with Clooney and it going well. But, she has natural aptitude for comedy and now gaining more acting roles.

    As an American, I really didn't know much about actors on the other side of the pond until i some how found WILTY.
    You can't help but fall in love with the women on that show.
    They are funny, vulnerable because we are learning quirky things about them and quick on their feet with witty come backs.
    I even looked up Katherine on Wikipedia. She was beautiful when she was young and grew even more beautiful now.
    Thanks to Rob, WILTY and all of UK and its neighbors for making this American laugh so hard.
    Be blessed,
    Leo from San Diego.
    Oh and RIP to Tara. She was funny, beautiful, smart and made my heart melt.
    She seemed like a pure, all beit rich soul.
    The thing with the clouds and Lee calling her a spoiled rich B kind of stung her , but she was so funny at playing it off.
    Can you tell I really like the show?

    In the IT crowd Katherine was very, very funny. But I will always remember her role in the Channel 4 programme 'Humans'.
    Her role as the mother of that family felt so believable that, even in the context of a sci-fi world, the whole thing always felt so real. Definitely some of the best acting I have seen. Such a shame that it is in a show that so many people may never have even heard of.
