Description:
Joanna
Lumley is one of Britain's undisputed national treasures, an English actress,
voiceover artist and author, best known for her roles in the British television
series ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS portraying Edina Monsoon's best friend, Patsy Stone,
as well as parts in THE NEW AVENGERS and SAPPHIRE & STEEL. A former model
and Bond girl, her distinctive voice has been supplied for animated characters,
film narration and AOL's "You've got mail" notification in the UK.
She has spoken out as a human rights activist for Survival International and
the recent Gurkha Justice Campaign, and is now considered a 'national treasure'
of Nepal as well as the UK because of her support. She is also an advocate for
a huge number of charities.
She has
won two BAFTA awards, but it is the sheer diversity of her life that has made
her so compelling a personality - early years in Kashmir and Malaya, growing up
in Kent, then a photographic model before becoming an actress, appearing in a
huge range of roles, whether it is the Nimble bread TV ad, movies like ON HER
MAJESTY'S SECRET SERVICE, dramas like SENSITIVE SKIN and documentaries on the
Northern Lights, Bhutan and the Nile, and of course as the unforgettable Patsy
in ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS or as Purdy in THE NEW AVENGERS, where her plummy vowels
and upper-class demeanour has made her one of our most recognisable actors.
