    You know the small blonde cid officer(who jack branning off eastenders used to carry with when he was phil in the bill), she turned down the role of whatshername, who played that woman who niles was in love with on frasier

    shrewd move that imo

    anyone else got some totally useless bit of rubbish they wish to share?

    I think you have that slightly wrong Marti. On one of the Frasier documentaries on youtube, cant remember which, Peri Gilpin (Roz in Frasier) says that Lisa Kudrow was originally cast as Roz but they could see after the first few shootings that it wasnt really working. The role was re-cast and given to Peri. Shortly after, Lisa Kudrow sent her flowers and a good luck card. Then Lisa got the role in friends.

    Couldnt imagine her in that role.. And that thing about the ripper girl and Les Battersby is amazing.

    The actress who plays Big Mo in Eastenders is Gary Oldman's sister. Therefore she used to be Uma Thurman's sister-in-law.
