Hi,

Does anyone know anything about Sally Phillips who played the part as one
of the hotel staff (Sophie) in Alan Partridge's last comedy?

What is she doing now? Other TV appearances, any web pages with further
information, etc, etc. I have had a look on the web but didn't
come up with much. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Timo

She's done lots of radio (including "Life, Death & Sex with Mike &
Sue" and, IIRC, "The Skivers"). She was in the TV series Fist of Fun
(and quite possibly in the original radio series) as The Girl Who
Smelled of Spam, and other characters. She appeared on last Friday's
"Comedy Nation" (BBC2, late at night), bemoaning the difficulties of
relationships with wasps. She was the Whore in a Helicopter on the
Election Night Armistice.

Basically, she's in everything.

Paul, slightly concerned at remembering all this.

Yes she's currently occasionally in Comedy Nation late night BBC 2.

Also the Treatment, Radio 5's pretty much ignored Start
Maconie-based satire fest. Which isn't Tv, but there you go.

Wasn't she the nurse PC Garfield fancied in The Bill on Thursday night
(19th)? I meant to check in the credits, but forgot.

Whoever it was definitely had Sophie's same "knowing smile" from Alan
Partridge.

Tony.
