More Lucy Davis Please

October 6, 2006 by  

Lucy DavisThis week the fabulous Lucy Davis, who is best known for her role as Dawn Tinsley on the UK version of The Office, had bit parts on two big shows: Studio 60 and Ugly Betty. As great as it was to see Lucy, both parts were too small for this fantastic actress. Hell, I don’t even think she had a line on Studio 60. Why hasn’t anyone snatched her up for a role on American television so I can watch her week in and week out? She’s just a delight.

While I’m at it, I’d also like to see Martin Freeman, who played Tim on The Office. And if someone wants to put Lucy and Martin back together in a show, just know that it’s fine by me.

Tim and Dawn

    I absolutely, 100% agree with you! I think Lucy had a very quick line, which was mumbled, on Studio 60. Did you happen to catch her in Shaun of the Dead a few years ago? Wonderful! And a Martin/Lucy reunion would be awesome!

    Lucy was on Ugly Betty? I saw Ashley Jensen from Extras, who was awesome, but I missed Lucy. Awww.

    Yeah, I missed the Ugly Betty appearance, too. Unless it was on tonight’s episode–which I missed for some reason. 🙂

    Oh my gosh, Brad, yes: Lucy was awesome in Shaun of the Dead. Definitely one of my favorite movies EVER! She did such a great job in that movie!

    And i agree, would love to see more of her and Martin Freeman. I love Martin Freeman! Of course, Martin Freeman was in Shaun of the Dead, too, so woot! (His part was very small, though)

    I haven’t watched Ugly Betty’s second ep yet, but I love Ashley Jensen on there. Glad she’s gotten more work. LOVE her on Extras!

    Lucy should be a temp secretary/receptionist when Pam takes a day off sometime. That would be freaking hysterical.

    I love Lucy. (bad bad pun) I hope she is a great success over here.

    i love to watch Lucy and Martin together on The Office. If anyone has ever seen their first kiss during the Charity day episode. It gives me the chills everytime. Martin was amazing. J. Kras definately made is own Jim though, but a little part of me has a soft spot for the orginal.

    Oh Martin Freeman…I’m in love with that man.

    The first kiss was so so at best, but, you felt Dawn’s true feelings at least. But, wow, between Dawn opening the present and when Dawn walked back into the Christmas party….the hopeless romantic in me just melted.

    I was a puddle of goo after that kiss to. I would love to see the two of them do some US stuff. Together would be awsome.

    Oh, man. When Dawn opens the present and sees the picture where he wrote “Never Give Up.” Chills. Tears. That’s one of my favorite TV moments of all time. Tim Canterbury is the best. (Jim Halpert is a close, close, close, close second and gaining ground every day, though!)

    I love both Tim and Jim. It still amazes me how much Jim reminds me of Tim in his facial expressions, etc. Love them both! Tim is adorable, and Jim is so perfect!

    I love Lucy Davis! My friend and I had this tradition of seeing any Garfield movies that came out and I saw Lucy in the second Garfield movie! It made my night! She also had a small role but she did so BRILLIANTLY that I can’t understand why nobody has noticed her!

    Oh and I LURV Tim too. -sheepish grin-
