Where she plays a gardener Rosemary Boxer, who together with fellow friend and ex-policewoman Laura Thyme (Pam Ferris) solve a mystery near their work. She speaks German, English, French, Italian and Russian fluently. Her most recent work is the murder mystery, Rosemary and Thyme. Her oddest role is widely considered to be Susie the Bear in The Hotel New Hampshire, where her character essentially lives her life in a bear suit. She starred in the first productions of many of his plays; in 1991 Stoppard left his wife to start a relationship with her. She has a daughter and a son with Ibrahim Moussa and a daughter with composer/producer Quincy Jones. Her relationship with playwright Tom Stoppard was both personal and professional. Her most notable screen roles include the title role of Tess (1979), (directed by Roman Polanski, with whom she had a relationship during the shooting of the movie), Cat People (1982), Paris, Texas (1984), as Dudley Moore's love interest in Unfaithfully Yours (1984) and as Mathilde in À ton image (2004).

Kendal's stage career blossomed during the eighties and nineties. Nastassja Kinski (born Nastassja Nakszynski on January 24, 1959) is a German-born model and actress, and daughter of actor Klaus Kinski. Despite this, she maintained her popularity. After series ended, she starred in several other BBC sitcoms, none of which came anywhere near the success of The Good Life. She was particularly popular with male viewers, and was voted "Rear of the Year" for her appearances wearing wellington boots.

On her return to Britain, she found that her film appearance was not a passport to success, and her struggle to build an acting career was long and difficult, partly because of her unusual upbringing. In 1975, she got her big break with the sitcom, The Good Life, which made her a household name. Felicity made her stage debut in these productions, and at the age of nineteen, starred in the film, Shakespeare Wallah (1965), loosely based on her family's real-life experience. They performed Shakespeare to audiences consisting mostly of schoolchildren. She is the younger sister of the late Jennifer Kendal and the daughter of Geoffrey Kendal, an English actor who made his living leading a repertory company on tours of India after the Second World War.

Felicity Kendal is a British actress, born in Warwickshire on September 25, 1946.
