Was that?


Was that Fiona Shaw that was in the first episode?

reply

Yes! Thank you. It was driving me crazy that I couldn't remember her name.

reply

Yes, I think it was! I knew i recognized her, but couldn't recall her name.

Was she on the show LOST?

No. She’s best known in the States as Aunt Petunia in the Harry Potter films and as the witch, Marnie on True Blood. I first saw her and admired her in The Super Mario Brothers movie from the the early 90s. She gave one of those “I’m going to save my own ass in this turkey” performances. She was the ONLY redeeming quality in that movie.

Dude, it’s Beacon Hills.

Yeah, I instantly recognized Marnie from TB -- but I had no idea she was Lena in SMB. Which wasn't THAT bad a movie. Yes, it was a weird mess, but hey, it had cool f/x -- and Samantha Mathis! And it's no more of a sacrilege to the source material than casting Anna Paquin as Rogue in X-Men ;)

Technically Fiona Shaw was in the second episode. That was Gina Bellman in the first episode as Dorthy's mom. I'm assuming that you meant the actress playing mombi.

Aunt Petunia finally got some magic! Sucks that she's only in two episodes. She was great

She was in Channel Zero.
