    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.

    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.

    Katherine Parkinson has been in SO many great shows lately. She's brilliant. Loved her on Task Master, too. She's also hotter now than she was back in the IT Crowd 😊 Spreadsheet didn't really do it for me as much as her other shows - the one where she's a barrister is my current favourite.

    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?

Yo también me encuentro en esa franja de edad y tolero chistes sobre mi próstata). Todo muy coloquial, en plan Pedro Ruiz. Por supuesto, soy una persona moderna y no la voy a traer agarrada por los pelos. Hablaré con su gobierno. Espero que las malas relaciones internacionales por las que atraviesan nuestros imperios no me impidan tenerla en mi casa. Un admirador siempre suyo.
