Known for playing Alice Tinker in The Vicar of Dibley, Doncaster-born Chambers also had roles in Notting Hill and a Martin Chuzzlewit adaptation.

She made that show, and so did this guy:

She always reminded me of a young Goldie Hawn.

I don't remember her from Notting Hill, but she was very memorable in Vicar.

Her role starts at about half-way through the above clip, and btw, she was only about 35 in Notting Hill -- I would have guessed her to have been about ten years younger than that.

So sad she died at only 53. She will be missed.
