Felicity Ann Kendal, CBE (born 25 September 1946) is an English actress who is well known in the United Kingdom for her television work. Born in 1946, Kendal spent much of her childhood in India, where her father managed a touring rep company. First appearing on stage aged 9 months, Kendal appeared in her first film, Shakespeare Wallah, in 1965. Returning to Britain that year, Kendal struggled in her career until 1975, when she started playing Barbara Good in The Good Life, the BBC sitcom. This made Kendal a household name, although later sitcoms where she was the lead did not achieve the popularity of The Good Life. In 2003, Kendal first played Rosemary Boxer in Rosemary & Thyme, a murder mystery drama that aired for three series ending in 2007. (via Wikipedia)
