Recently, Jonathan Creek and Green Wing favourite Sarah Alexander looked like she was ageing backwards as she stepped out at a glam event.

During her TV heyday, which also included stints in Red Dwarf and Drop The Dead Donkey, she was known for her blonde locks and chunky fringe.

She also favoured thick black eyeliner and mascara.

The star has kept her signature look, and was spotted on a Red Carpet showing off her blonde flicked locks and toned figure.

She looked chic in a plunging sleeveless jumpsuit, finishing her look with nude lipgloss and heels.

Sarah cuddled up to her actor and comedian husband Peter Serafinowicz, with whom she lives in London and shares two kids.

The star featured in his shows Look Around You as well as O! News, a spoof of the American E! News.

Sarah had already found fame in the States by starring on US series Teachers, produced by NBC.

Yet prior to their marriage, aged 30, she began a relationship with actor Gerald Harper, who was aged 70 at the time.

Yet it lasted just a year before Sarah called time on the partnership and met Peter.

The screen star recently spoke out on finding fame from her telly career, which was sparked with a role on The Bill back in 1992.

She told The Independent: "I do not understand the pleasure of being so famous.

"I just don't get it. I love acting and doing the work.

"That's what it's all about for me."

She joked how she is only recognised if she "wears lots of make-up" and added: "The appeal of comedy is that you're not going to look your best.

"Dressing-up or dressing down is something I love and feel very comfortable doing.

"I feel at my least comfortable when I have to look at my best. I suppose I'm lucky, but having to look good is a pressure I don't particularly enjoy.

"Whereas dressing up, putting on a funny hat or wig is infinitely more amusing."

Earlier this year, she was seen in a Father Brown episode named The Last Supper.

She juggled the telly role with a stint on the stage, starring alongside Lee Mack in comedy Unfriend.

The arrival of an unexpected visitor then leaves upended by the arrival of a visitor to the home of Lee, who plays dad Peter and Sarah, who takes on the role of his on-stage wife Debbie.
