My Take
Martine McCutcheon, for me, is a proper all-rounder from a generation of British entertainers who could genuinely do everything. I first knew her as Tiffany on EastEnders, but she stunned me by jumping to the West End stage and winning a Laurence Olivier Award for My Fair Lady, that's a serious gear change. Then she charmed everyone as Natalie in Love Actually, opposite Hugh Grant. The Hackney-born performer also topped the UK chart with "Perfect Moment." What I admire is that warmth she radiates on screen, completely unforced. She's never been the biggest name, but her range across soap, stage, screen, and song is rare.
