give him red hair and it could work.

I recon Sean Bean as Sam Vimes would be perfect

And Julie Waters as his Wife What do you recon

I love Julie Walters, but I think she's a little old to play Sibyl. Also, she's not fat - she was wearing a fat suit for the Harry Potter movies. Sibyl needs to be Considerably plus-size!

[raptornx01]

You know, i never pictured Sybil as being really really fat, more, bigger. more amazoness with a little extra around the waist, then cheery baker.

[Ghost]

I think that Miranda Hart could play Sybil

Didn't Sybil wear alot of Padding /Protection from the Swamp Dragons

[Dotsie]

I've just finished G!G! and Sybil seems to have started off really fat, then evolved into more of a strapping Amazonian type a the series went on. Nobby describes her as a "big fat party", and a "great big biddy". Miranda's probably right physically (ie strapping, not fat), and suitably posh, she just might be a bit young.

I don't know about that. She's 40 now and that seems to me about the right age for Sybil. I must say that after seeing her in Call The Midwife, she seemed like a good choice for Sybil too.

When I was reading Sybil for the first time, I pictured the actress Camryn Manheim, who is 51 but looks much younger.

[Dotsie]

She looks good for the part.

Miranda is 40? Bloody hell, being posh has it's advantages (well, obviously)

Is that what I'm doing wrong, dammit!

[Alanz]

What about Dawn French as Sybil

fun thing, my own mother looks half her age and happens to be 50 herself, I win heheh, as for Sybils actress, maybe a mix between Camryn and Miranda? Sybil to me is someone that has the odd wrinkle here and there so miranda is a bit too young. As for Vimes's actor, he would need to be an actor that's a bit lanky and can play cynical, Hugh Laurie plays cynical in the show House and he looks the part too .
