Amanda Jacqueline Redman

Amanda Jacqueline Redman (born 12 August 1957) is an English actress, perhaps best known for her role as Sandra Pullman in the BBC One series New Tricks. She is the niece of actress Joyce Redman. Redman was born in Brighton, Sussex in 1957. Her father, Ronald, was from Yorkshire and her mother, Joan, from Sussex. Redman is badly scarred on her upper left arm as a result of an accident when she was 15 months old. She was scalded with a pan boiling turkey-and-vegetable soup and suffered third-degree burns of 75% of her body. Her arm was the only part of her body permanently affected, but the trauma was so severe that she was actually pronounced clinically dead at the Queen Victoria Hospital in East Grinstead, Sussex. Redman trained at the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School. In 1985, she played Janet in the Tour version of 'The Rocky Horror Show' alongside Doctor Who actor Nicholas Courtney, who played the Narrator in the production. She played opposite Liv Ullman in Richard's Thing (1981) and took over from Alfred Molina in the 1990s comedy drama El C.I.D., playing a new female lead in the series, and played Diana Dors in the 1999 TV movie The Blonde Bombshell. Redman presented an MTV show on satellite TV in the 1990s. She co-starred in the first series of Dangerfield (1995) and played a role in Taggart the same year. In 2000, Redman played Deedee Dove in the feature film Sexy Beast. From 2000 until 2003, Redman played Alison, a woman whose life is turned upside-down when she wins the lottery, in ITV's At Home with the Braithwaits. Beginning in 2003, Redman took the role of Sandra Pullman in the BBC's New Tricks. In June 2006 Redman performed in Children's Party At The Palace as Cruella DeVil for Queen Elizabeth II's 80th Birthday; and was the subject of one episode of the BBC documentary series Who Do You Think You Are?, a programme about her family history. Redman is principal at the Artists Theatre School, based at Ealing Studios, which she co-founded in 1994. She was also president of the Brighton Little Theatre from 2004 to 2007. Redman is the mother of actress Emily Glenister (born 1987), from her marriage to actor Robert Glenister. Since 1999 she has been in a relationship with mobile-phone designer Damian Schnabel. The couple live in Ealing, west London, and they married in September 2010.
