I'd been admonished by my brother to watch "The Office" as it was, apparently, fall-down funny. I turned on the tube, caught the first episode and my face turned to cement. Nothing funny at all. Then my bro told me to rent the British version, which I did--- two seasons. Watched them with my honey, end to end, sometimes repeatedly, stopping the DVD to re-run scenes so as to watch different actors' reactions. Funny, funny, funny. Brit comedy at its best. Real people, with real noses, bellies, hairstyle issues, fat, thin, short, tall, etc.
Then there is Lucy Davis, who plays Dawn, the receptionist. Big, liquid eyes. Blonde hair. An almost somnambulistic demeanor. And not skinny. Chubby face. Full figure. Crush crush crush.
It's come to this---an actress isn't a size 0 or 2, and is considered full-figured.
In the series, she has a boyfriend and another character, Tim, is secretly in love with her. So not only is she unskinny, she is the object of two men's desire. Imagine!
Did a google on Lucy Davis, to find out what she's been up to lately. Discovered she was offerred the role of Cameron Diaz' "fat and ugly" sister in the movie "In Her Shoes".
And turned it down---hurray!
The role went to Toni Collette, she of the plump Muriel in 1994's "Muriel's Wedding".
I Heart Lucy!
