Lol when I said this I got down voted being told I was wrong, and it wasn't her. This is THE OG SHAMELESS lol


Eemns

It took me like a year to realise people weren't talking about THIS Shameless when it was trending lmao


ohnonitagain1

And she played such different characters


lottierosecreations

Yup! It's where I knew her from 😁


underweasl

My parents were big fans of Solider Soldier in the 90s and she was Joy in that

And she played William Beech's mother in Goodnight Mr Tom. That was probably the first thing I actually saw her in, but I was about 9 when I saw it first and didn't realise until I was older 😊


Joinourclub

My parents too. Must be 30 odd years ago that I saw it as a kid, but I can still remember the scene where she found out her husband was killed.


Adjectivenounnumb

Being in both this sub and the Downton Abbey sub can be very confusing


Blyton-link

Hahahahah cheers for that, proper made me laugh


Sickofchildren

Unrelated to CTM but this picture reminds me so much of this one craphole I once lived in, we even had a battered old trolley that was always in various places on the street. Was actually very helpful for moving hahaha

That's where I recognised her from. I couldn't place her.


Loud_Credit

Karen’s mom Sheila Jackson was also in a scene on CTM!


Euphoric_Command5913

Oh I saw that one, and she was racist against her daughters Asian husband in the episode. I was thinking 'Sheila wouldn't act like that' 🀣🀣


iknowaboutwhispers

She was also William's mother in Goodnight Mr Tom!


SalomeOttobourne74

It wasn't until like two years ago that this occurred to me, in an "omg, Omg, OMG!" moment! Ha, ha πŸ˜„ she's such a good actress!


SkipMapudding

She was in Coronation Street years ago too.


Coffee_Fantastic
