In Midsomer Murders

Phillips plays Lucy Keswick in The Village That Rose from the Dead, the opening case of Series 19. Its apparently deserted village offers a suitably odd stage for a performer with a strong comedy background.

Performer biography

Sally Phillips co-created and starred in the sketch show Smack the Pony. She is also widely known as Shazza in the Bridget Jones films and Tilly in Miranda.

Her work has ranged across sitcom, film, presenting and more serious television roles. Her Midsomer appearance uses that flexibility in one of the programme's most unusual village settings.
