Zoë plays Charlie Hungerford, the whip-smart mother-in-law of recently widowed detective Jim Bergerac, in this reimagining of the classic 80s drama set in Jersey. Season one is streaming on U; season two arrives on U and U&DRAMA on 16 April.

Zoë has joined the cast of this ITV crime drama as Zelda Radclyffe, the quirky aunt of Cambridge professor Jasper Tempest, who helps the police solve challenging murder cases. Season four aired on PBS in the US in 2025 and comes to the UK in 2026, while filming recently finished on season five.

News round-up: Olivier Awards, The Wild Party and visiting the Harpers...

Olivier Award nomination for Elegy

Nick Payne's extraordinary Elegy, in which Zoë starred last spring as a woman with a debilitating neurological disorder, has been nominated for Best New Play at the 2017 Olivier Awards.

We'll find out whether the play, which was staged at the Donmar Warehouse, has been chosen as the winner on 9 April, when the prestigious awards ceremony takes place in London.

The Wild Party press night

Zoë was photographed attending The Wild Party's press night on 21 February (see the tenth picture in the gallery). She can also be glimpsed in the musical's press night video.

The Wild Party stars Frances Ruffelle as vaudeville showgirl Queenie and is the first show to be staged at Andrew Lloyd Webber's new London venue, The Other Palace.

Relive the Harpers' highlights

A talented fan called Karoline has been busy capturing some of My Family's most memorable moments for her new blog, Let's Visit the Harpers. There you'll find an ever expanding collection of gifs showing Zoë and her co-stars as the hilarious Harpers (one of my favourites is above), in addition to some of the long-running sitcom's funniest lines.

With eleven years' worth of My Family episodes at her disposal, Karoline will certainly be keeping us entertained with her blog for some time to come!
