Earlier this month, Amanda Redman celebrated either her 59th or her 60th birthday (depending on your source for her date of birth).
She is the BAFTA-nominated British actress who won our hearts (and vast viewing figures) playing senior police officer Sandra Pullman in the TV series New Tricks.
This hugely successful BBC1 police-with-a-twist series ran for 12 years from 2003, starring Redman for most of that time as the UCOS chief in charge of a disparate bunch of retired former police officers. The original No-Longer-Wild Bunch was played by Dennis Waterman, James Bolam and Alun Armstrong. There were 15 series of New Tricks from 2003: at the end, Tamzin Outhwaite replaced “Sandra” as boss of UCOS, by which time Waterman et al had been replaced by Dennis Lawson, Larry Lamb and Nicholas Lyndhurst.
A tall, slender blonde, Redman, proved conclusively both in New Tricks and more recently in ITV drama The Trials of Jimmy Rose in which she starred opposite Ray Winstone, that being 50-plus is no bar to being alluring and glamorous. Slender but not stick-thin, she deploys a strong sense of style, to play up her assets and distract from any perceived deficiencies – which is what we all should aim for!
Steal her style by playing up your assets in a shapely dress in a fabulous shade of blue, simply accessorised. Then just add blow-dry, blusher and big smile…
We also like how she has nailed a chic, grown-up off-duty look.
She has paired skinny black jeans with a great black tee (note the scooped neckline which really suits her face shape and her colouring and perfectly showcases her assets). And the black tee-plus-jeans is a very slenderising combination. Jan thinks that tee is probably an old favourite as Jan has the same tee and says: “It’s ancient, but I love it so I won’t recycle it”. We also love a wonderfully clean, uncluttered black waterfall leather jacket.
What do you think of Amanda Redman’s style?
