Jennifer Saunders - as Sue the party guest in Interesting; as Helen Mucus the murderess in Time

When I first saw the ep with her in it, I thought to myself, "aww, they took some poor chubby girl off the street and dressed her up funny, just to make fun of her." I didn't know that her vacant stare was in fact great comic acting, or that she would end up writing & starring in one of the best sitcoms in TV history.

Helen was glad her surname wasn't "back" as people would think she'd been to "hell and back".

ALSO, FUN FACT, Hugh Laurie went on to play the chracter "Hugh Laurie" in the hit american medicla drama "ER".
