[provisional NTF] Yolande Davis - Exotic dancer Kenki

TedDrake · October 21st, 2017, 09:35 PM

So in an old episode of the Fast Show, these characters appear. I've been trying for ages to find out who Kenki, the exotic dancer is, with no joy.

If anyone has any ideas, I'd be eternally grateful..

The sketch is from the BBC's 1999 "Fast Show Night" evening of programmes and was included in a special compilation of previously unaired skits called "You Ain't Seen These, Right?".

I see that British glamour favourites Donna Ewin and Rachal Garley were in a number of FS episodes in various roles, but the girl is clearly not either than them.

Unfortunately, IMDB have scant information regarding the cast...

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1582450/...=tt_cl_sm#cast

I'm not sure whether DE is Kenki's (Kinky?) friend Gena (Gina?), but TV.Com have her listed in the credits...

There are, other than that, two women who I don't recognise on that list however (Rosie Fellner and Louise Brill).

Anna Walton perhaps, she's in the credits for that episode

I'm wondering if Anna Walton is the other girl (Gina)?

Here's a picture of her in some other thing...

Compared with her the screenshot from the FS, and...

If this is the case then it would appear that the girl is uncredited as the other woman in the "with" section (Yolande Davis), is, I'm pretty sure, black.

It appears it is Yolande Davis, here in Heartbeat

**Nightjar** · December 23rd, 2017, 08:59 PM

Damn you, IMDB!

OK . . . found a streaming version of Heartbreak, series 6, episode 7, "Snapped".

Begin watching at minute 20:45, and you will see & hear her clearly.

Yolande Davis is credited with the role of "Sylvie" at several sites:

I concur that it's Yolande Davis, sounds like her too. Here's a quick trailer from the movie "How To Breed Gibbons" where she played the lead character's gf. You'll get a clear look at her between the 1:00 - 1:24. Same hairstyle, same chin and all.
