Clara Salaman

She is 5ft 4ins tall and has a size 10 figure. As of September 2000, she's 33 years old. She also smokes and lives in North London with her boyfriend, Paul Brennan, who's also an actor.

The youngest of three, at the age of four she began to study philosophy. Her father was a philosophy lecturer and her mother became a landlady after being a theatrical agent. At the age of fourteen she was expelled. She spent a month in France to improve her French, before going to boarding school, which she found very strict. She obtained three A-Levels.

Before studying Drama at London's Central School of Speech and Drama, she spent some time in Turkey. By the age of 22, she'd married her boyfriend. Two years later, they divorced.

Twelve years ago, she also witnessed a fatal stabbing and had to give evidence in court.

In 1993 she lived in Madrid for two months but returned to England as she missed it.

The actress was nominated for the Best Newcomer Award at the National Television Awards 2000, and whilst filming the series Beech Is Back, Clara became pregnant. I'm sure all of Clara's fans wish her the best of luck!
