Kate Robbins
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0730394/
Born: August 21, 1958 in Margate, Kent, England Katherine (Kate) Robbins is an English actress, comedienne and singer on 21st August, 1958. Robbins is a first cousin once removed of Paul McCartney and older sister of Amy Robbins (her mother and McCartney were first cousins). She attended Wirral Grammar School for Girls and won the Drama Prizes each year, notably with her monologue "All this glitters is not gold". Her first released recording, in 1978, was of the song "Tomorrow", owned by McCartney's music publishing company, from the musical Annie. Robbins first came to prominence whilst representing United Kingdom in the Eurovision Song Contest 1980 as part of the group Prima Donna. They finished third. The following year, Robbins joined the cast of the ITV soap opera Crossroads, playing the part of a pop singer who was recording a single in the fictional motel's basement recording studio. The song, "More Than In Love", was released commercially in the UK (credited as Kate Robbins and Beyond) and gave Robbins a major hit single, reaching number 2 in the UK Singles Chart. It was her only hit. The backing group Beyond had taken part in the UK's Song for Europe contest earlier in the year, losing to Bucks Fizz. Robbins wrote the first theme tune to Surprise, Surprise and provided almost all of the female voices on the television show Spitting Image in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The 1986 Granada Television sketch show Robbins featured Kate, her brother Ted Robbins, and her sisters Amy Robbins, Jane Robbins, and Emma Robbins, the latter now best known as one of the singers with The Sheilas. She featured in the original series of Dead Ringers on BBC Radio 4 in 2000. Robbins also provided the English language dubbing for Europeans, featured on the Channel 4 series Eurotrash and, in 2006, made two appearances on the BBC Radio 4 programme Just a Minute. In 2007, Robbins was awarded an Honorary Bachelor of Arts degree from Bedfordshire University, for her lifetime contribution to the Performing Arts. Robbins is separated from composer Keith Atack, by whom she has three children, including actress Emily Atack who played Charlotte Hinchliffe in The Inbetweeners. In December 2010, Robbins released her third album, a jazz based affair, entitled Soho Nights, which was written as a collaboration with the Italian saxophonist Alessandro Tomei, and recorded at Abbey Road Studios in London. Robbins acted in feature films. She was named Best Supporting Actress at the Angel Awards of the Monaco International Film Festival, for her role as Kathleen in the low-budget British film, Fated. In 2005, she played Joan alongside Johnny Vegas in Sex Lives of the Potato Men. In 2006 she appeared with James Franco and Jean Reno in the movie Flyboys playing the role of Clarisse, a brothel Madame. She has been cast in the comedy film Lunchbox as a man-hungry teacher called Suzanne. Robbins appeared in two series of the BBC Television comedy series dinnerladies, playing the character 'Babs' a friend of 'Petula Gordino' played by Julie Walters. Robbins later appeared with the sitcom's writer Victoria Wood in the BBC TV special Victoria Wood with All The Trimmings. Robbins has worked on many comedy TV shows including Last of the Summer Wine, The Harry Enfield Show, Peter Kay's Phoenix Nights, and Shooting Stars. She has also appeared in Holby City, two series of Where the Heart Is, Doctors, and Casualty. She is currently working on the second series of The Legend of Dick and Dom for BBC One, and worked on Soapington Way in 2010, which was written by Harry Hill.
