About Amanda Jacqueline Redman

Amanda Jacqueline Redman, MBE (born 12 August 1957)

English actress, known for her role as Sandra Pullman in the BBC One series New Tricks (2003–13) and as Dr. Lydia Fonseca in The Good Karma Hospital (2017-18). She gained BAFTA TV Award nominations for At Home with the Braithwaites (2000–03) and Tommy Cooper: Not Like That, Like This (2014). Her film roles include For Queen and Country (1988), Sexy Beast (2000) and Mike Bassett: England Manager (2001)

She was born in Brighton. Her father, Ronald Jack Redman (1929–1980), was born in Camberwell, London to parents from Yorkshire, and her mother, Joan Beryl Redman (née Herrington, 1927-2014), was born in India as the daughter of William Herrington, a British Indian Army soldier. Redman's father, who was two years younger than her mother, died at the age of 51 in 1980, when Redman was 23. Redman had one brother, who died in 2012.

Redman is badly scarred on her upper left arm a result of being scalded with a pan of boiling soup when she was 18m old. She suffered burns to 75% of her body. Her arm was the only part of her body permanently affected, but the trauma was so severe that she was pronounced clinically dead at the Queen Victoria Hospital in East Grinstead, Sussex.
