Beautiful People: Orla Brady

Inspired by the fabulous Dorothy Surrenders, I want to start doing more regular weekly posts with a certain theme. These will almost certainly be picture-heavy, but this way I can guarantee that I will get at least one post out a week, hopefully two.

So Sunday is Beautiful People Day. Since I am a Hairy-Legged Feminist this will of course include Beautiful-on-the-Inside People too. But today's inaugural post is someone who is very definitely Beautiful-on-the-Outside, and only possibly Beautiful-on-the-Inside. ANYWAY.

In honour of the Beeb's Mistresses restarting this week, I give you Orla Brady, our first Beautiful Person.



An ever-so-slightly photo-shopped promo. After all, the woman's 47, can't have her looking her age, can we?



Orla agrees that would be ridiculous. After all, she's aged so hideously from when she looked like this:



Hasn't she?



She is Irish though, that makes up for it...

About the programme, Mistresses is a lot sillier and a lot more inane than it was last series, although I did watch that when I had a hideous cold, so maybe I'm remembering it wrongly. But here's hoping it gets better - not that it'll stop me watching, of course. Because I didn't mention Sarah Parish...

  3. I have to admit I have a major crush on Orla Brady ever since the first time I saw her do a guest appearance on Fringe. I would marry her in an instant, even with her being 20 years older than me I wouldn't hesitate :D
    The irony is, The image you posted thats slightly photoshopped actually makes her look either the same age as me possibly even younger than me,
    Which is amazing considering she is from the UK and hasn't had loads of Plastic Surgery like most American actresses her age, I reckon Orla Brady will still look sexy when she is reaching 60, And that would be an achievement, certainly if its all surgery free.
