I Was Watching Happy Valley ...

[naomi24]

... no spoilers please ... I've not finished it all ... when playing the part of the Teaching Assistant, up popped Moaning Myrtle, the ghost who resides in the girls toilets at Harry Potter's Hogwarts! And looking and acting exactly like Moaning Myrtle too! I just can't take her seriously in this.

Has anyone ever seen her in anything else - and did she leave Myrtle behind? I haven't.

A few facts about her (or rather the actress who plays her):

Quite the CV, Naomi. I do recall watching Southcliffe, but i cannot for the life in me remember if her performance was in any way similar to her HV one.

You will note that she was in all 3 Bridget Jones films, so maybe someone who is a fan of that series of films and HV will enlighten you further.

I first noticed her in Death in Paradise, in 2011. She quite gives me the willies

[naomi24]

Well, she certainly leaves Myrtle behind at other times. I like the Bridget Jones films but never realised she was in them. Thanks all.

She's brigits friend in brigit Jones diary. I thing she's supposed to be about 14 in hp but was actually in her 30s. I couldn't bear her in hv the way she whispers with her face do cloeebut she is support to be odd I guess.

So close that's supposed to read!

Yes, she was in The House Across The Street a TV mini-series that was on not long ago, her character was exactly the same as in Happy Valley.

She gave me the creeps. That voice was horrible. I've never watched any Harry Potter films.
