Every woman has her peak years. But during actress Sharon Small's she was cast as a fat, ugly woman on a now-famous British TV series.
"The director said, 'OK, Sharon, how do you feel about wearing no makeup, having a terrible haircut and wearing terrible clothes and playing this woman?' " she recalls in a lobby bar at a hotel in California.
The role was that of dumpy policewoman Barbara Havers in Elizabeth George's "The Inspector Lynley Mysteries."
