Signature

Catherine Jane Ford (born 5 December 1969), known professionally as Catherine Tate, is a British actress, comedian and writer. She has won numerous awards for her work on the

episodes in 2023.[3]

Tate starred as

Joanie Taylor ("Nan") in the BBC One comedy series Catherine Tate's Nan (2009–2015) and in the film The Nan Movie (2022). In 2011, she began a recurring role as Nellie Bertram in the U.S. version of The Office, and was a regular until the series ended.[4] She also played the role of Miss Sarah Postern in the BBC One sitcom Big School (2013–2014) and voiced Magica De Spell in the animated series DuckTales (2017–2021). In the early 2020s, she created and starred in two sitcoms, Netflix's Hard Cell[5] which she also co-directed, and BBC One's Queen of Oz
.

Tate has appeared in films, including Love and Other Disasters, Starter for 10 (both 2006), Mrs Ratcliffe's Revolution (2007), Gulliver's Travels (2010), Monte Carlo (2011), and SuperBob (2015).

Early life

Tate was born in

obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and was obsessed with word association. For example, she was not able to leave a jumper on the floor because it might have brought misfortune to her mother, whose name began with the letter "J" like "jumper".[14]

Tate attended St Joseph's Roman Catholic Primary School in

Central School of Speech and Drama, succeeding on her fourth attempt.[15] She studied there for three years.[12][15] Prior to getting a place there, Tate went to the Sylvia Young Theatre School, but left after a week, later stating, "Even at that age, I realised I wasn't Bonnie Langford. It was very competitive."[16] She was also a member of the National Youth Theatre.[17]

Born Catherine Ford, she changed her name when she got her Equity card as an actress.[18] She chose her new surname after the character of Jessica Tate, played by Katherine Helmond, from the American sitcom television series Soap.[19]

Career

1988–2003: Early acting and stand-up career

From 1988 to 1990 Tate toured with the National Youth Theatre production of Blood Wedding, which also starred Daniel Craig and Jessica Hynes.[20] In 1994, she got the part of Lydia Lubey in the Oxford Stage Company production of Arthur Miller's All My Sons.[21] She then worked at the Royal National Theatre, playing small roles in The Way of the World (1995) and The Prince's Play (1996).[22][15] Tate also performed with the Royal Shakespeare Company during its 10-month tour across the UK, Australia and the US with Lee Hall's adaptation of The Servant of Two Masters (2000–2001).[16]

Her television acting career began with roles in serial dramas such as The Bill and London's Burning.[15][12] Her debut happened in an episode of the sitcom Surgical Spirit in 1991. She was offered an audition for the part by the casting director who also owned a sandwich shop Tate used to go in and knew she was about to go to drama college. On the set, she got to work with actor Duncan Preston, of whom she was a big fan.[20]

"[I] did a lot of stage work. I'd always wanted to do comedy, but it was the '90s and they were closing a lot of the repertory theatres. The closest thing I saw to stage work was stand-up, so I took the stand-up route and went to the Edinburgh Festival and did things like that. My journey through stand-up was quite quick, though, 'cause then I started doing sketch humor, and then I got my own TV show. In the middle, though, I did films and TV, too, so I've been very lucky to be able to mix it all up."

— Tate about her early career, February 2012[23]

In 1996 Tate began performing stand-up comedy.

The Harry Hill Show and That Peter Kay Thing.[25] The next year, she returned to the festival with her own sell-out one-woman show,[24] which was followed by roles in comedy series Big Train,[16] Attention Scum, Charlie Brooker's TVGoHome and several BBC Radio productions.[25]

After being spotted at Edinburgh by the casting director Tracey Gillham, she was given her first major television role as Angela in the comedy Wild West (2002–2004) set in the small Cornish town. Tate became pregnant before filming the first series and had to wear a lot of baggy clothes as Angela.[26] The show also starred Dawn French as her lesbian partner and local shop and post office co-owner Mary,[25][27] who commented, "Catherine Tate is far too talented and she must be destroyed."[16]

2004–2005: Breakthrough with The Catherine Tate Show

Tate was approached at a post-show party at the

first series of The Catherine Tate Show,[29] and with the first series becoming a success, in March 2005, Tate made a guest appearance during the BBC's Red Nose Day as the character of Lauren, alongside boy band McFly, which gained her further exposure.[24]

In November 2005 Tate appeared in another charity sketch as part of the BBC's annual

second series of The Catherine Tate Show.[32]

In January 2005, Tate appeared as Mitzi Kosinki in the ITV adaptation of Agatha Christie's novel A Murder Is Announced, starring Geraldine McEwan as Miss Marple.[33] Towards the end of the year, Tate played the part of Kate in the unaired pilot episode of Lee Mack's sitcom Not Going Out and Mrs Chadband in an episode of the BBC television adaptation of Bleak House.[34][35]

Tate returned to the stage for the first time since working with the Royal Shakespeare Company,[36] to play a role in the original West End production of Some Girl(s) (2005), alongside Sara Powell, Lesley Manville, Saffron Burrows and Friends star David Schwimmer.[37] In an interview, Tate commented that she could not look Schwimmer in the eye during her time with him, leading to speculation that the pair did not get on.[15] Tate immediately denied the rumours, explaining that she was joking about her attempts to act "cool" around Schwimmer, whom she described as "a very funny, personable man, and easy to get along with".[38]

2006–2010: Doctor Who and films

The

third series of The Catherine Tate Show aired in 2006, going on to win the National Television Award for most popular comedy as voted for by the public,[39] and Tate's catchphrase "bovvered", used by her character Lauren Cooper, became so influential in popular culture that it was named Word of the Year and was even poised to enter the Oxford English Dictionary.[40] Tate also played the role of Donna Noble in Doctor Who, a temp worker from Chiswick who suddenly appears in the TARDIS at the end of the episode "Doomsday".[41] The following episode, the Christmas special entitled "The Runaway Bride", saw Tate's character in a major role, where she was temporarily the Doctor's companion.[41] On her appearance in the series, Tate commented, "I'm honoured and delighted to be joining David Tennant aboard the TARDIS. I was holding out for a summer season at Wigan rep but as a summer job, this'll do."[42]

Tate with her Doctor Who co-star David Tennant in 2011

Tate had roles in three films in 2006, these included Starter for 10 starring James McAvoy,[43] Sixty Six starring Helena Bonham Carter and Eddie Marsan,[44] and Scenes of a Sexual Nature, a debut feature screenplay from The Catherine Tate Show co-writer Aschlin Ditta.[45] She later appeared in the films Mrs Ratcliffe's Revolution, in which she played the title character opposite Iain Glen,[36] and Love and Other Disasters.[46] In the television adaptation of the best-selling novel of the same name, The Bad Mother's Handbook, she played the dramatic lead role and co-starred with Anne Reid, Holliday Grainger and Robert Pattinson.[47]

On 16 March 2007 Tate appeared for a second time on the

She has been nominated for four

BAFTA Awards for her work on The Catherine Tate Show, including Best Comedy Performance.[50] Despite speculation that the third series of the show would be the last, Tate and the BBC have not ruled out further episodes.[36] She later filmed a one-off special episode which aired on Christmas Day 2007. The episode was subject to criticism when 42 viewers complained about the amount of swearing, and accused Tate of bigotry over the depiction of a family from Northern Ireland as terrorists, whose Christmas presents included a balaclava and a pair of knuckle dusters, in reference to the Troubles.[51] After the complaints were made, an Ofcom report later concluded that the show was not offensive and did not violate broadcasting regulations.[52][53] An extract from the Ofcom report read: "Overall this episode was typical of The Catherine Tate Show and would not have gone beyond the expectations of its usual audience. For those not familiar with the show, the information given at the start was adequate."[54]

In summer 2008, Tate starred as Michelle, a promiscuous mathematics teacher, in

fourth series, which was shown on BBC One starting on 5 April for a 13-week run.[58] Producer Russell T Davies said, "We are delighted that one of Britain's greatest talents has agreed to join us for the fourth series." Tate added, "I am delighted to be returning to Doctor Who. I had a blast last Christmas and look forward to travelling again through time and space with that nice man from Gallifrey."[2]

At the 2008 TV Quick Awards and SFX Awards, Tate was voted best actress for her dramatic Doctor Who performance.[60] She also earned a nomination at the 14th National Television Awards. A year and a half after the heartbreaking finale of the fourth series, she returned as Donna in the first part of the show's festive special "The End of Time", which was broadcast on Christmas Day 2009 and became the final story for both David Tennant as the Tenth Doctor and Russell T Davies as showrunner.[61][62] Later that day, Nan's Christmas Carol premiered, a one-off special spin-off to The Catherine Tate Show focused on Nan, who gets visited by three ghosts (played by David Tennant, Ben Miller and Roger Lloyd-Pack) in her council flat.[63] The next day, Tate and Tennant guest hosted Jonathan Ross's BBC Radio 2 show,[64] having already done so on 11 April[65] and later appearing on the show once again on 30 January 2010.[66]

In March 2010, Tate took part in

O2 Arena in London. She went on to make her directorial debut in Sky One's series of short comedy films called Little Crackers. The autobiographical short film My First Nativity (2010), also written by and starring Tate as her mother Josephine, showed the young Catherine performing an impression of Gary Glitter in her school nativity play.[67][68] It received a nomination for the Best Comedy Programme at the 2011 British Academy Television Awards
.

On Christmas Day 2010 Tate appeared as Queen Isabelle of Lilliput in the film adaptation of Gulliver's Travels starring Jack Black in the title role. She then starred opposite Selena Gomez in another American comedy film, Monte Carlo (2011).

From May to September 2011, Tate appeared alongside Tennant in the Shakespeare comedy Much Ado About Nothing at the Wyndham's Theatre.[74] The production was recorded by Digital Theatre and is available to watch on their website.[75] For her performance as Beatrice, Tate won the BroadwayWorld UK Award for Best Leading Actress in a Play, while her reunion with Tennant won the WhatsOnStage Award for the Theatre Event of the Year.[76] At the same ceremony, she received an award in the Best Supporting Actress category for the Royal National Theatre production of Alan Ayckbourn's Season's Greetings (2010–2011), in which she played Belinda.[77]

Tate guest starred in the two-part

ninth and final season.[82]

the others it's clear that it's me. I just enjoy playing that character mainly because you get the privilege of age where you can swear and people laugh. Old people swearing is funny."[90][18] She reprised the role several times between 2009 and 2018 on Graham Norton, Michael McIntyre, Paul O'Grady and Alan Carr's television shows and performed Bonnie Tyler's song "Holding Out for a Hero" in character for Let's Sing and Dance for Comic Relief
(2017).

In October 2016, Tate began touring British theatres with

ITV. It was also covered live on Magic Radio, where listeners heard Tate hilariously going back on fluffed lines multiple times, occasionally swearing. She later apologised after it was pointed out the event was going out live.[106]

Tate with David Tennant at GalaxyCon Raleigh in 2019

In 2016 and 2019, Tate and David Tennant reprised their Doctor Who roles in two volumes of the full-cast audio series The Tenth Doctor Adventures from Big Finish Productions. Talking about his frequent colleague during the recording session, Tennant said: "I love working with Catherine because of the life that she brings to something and the way that she can turn the most mundane line into something glorious and sparkling. I love Catherine for what she is most famous for, and that's being funny and brilliant and witty and quick, but I love the fact that she's a great and proper actress."[107] In October 2017, Tate was revealed to be part of the cast of Disney XD's DuckTales reboot, providing the voice of the villainous sorceress Magica De Spell following the death of the character's long-time voice actor, June Foray, in July of the same year. Tennant provided the voice of the show's protagonist, Scrooge McDuck.[108]

In April 2020, Tate revived her popular character Lauren Cooper for The Big Night In, a telethon held during the COVID-19 pandemic, in a skit that had her being schooled remotely by a teacher played again by Tennant.[109] Another popular character from The Catherine Tate Show, Nan, made a return the next year in a Comic Relief sketch starring Daniel Craig as James Bond, followed by the feature film The Nan Movie (2022).[110]

In April 2022, she starred as six different characters in

60th anniversary specials of Doctor Who.[114] In August, the BBC commissioned Queen of Oz, a sitcom written by and starring Tate as a disgraced member of a fictional British Royal Family sent to rule Australia, which aired in June 2023.[115]

In May 2023, Tate was the UK's jury spokesperson in the final of the Eurovision Song Contest 2023, in which she announced the UK's jury points directly from the Liverpool Arena, where the event was held.[116]

Personal life

Tate was formerly in a relationship with stage manager Twig Clark,[13] with whom she has a daughter, who was born in January 2003.

Tate suffered from post-natal depression,[12] from which she only recovered after the filming of the second series of The Catherine Tate Show.[13][14] She also suffers from occasional panic attacks.[14] Regarding her personal outlook, Tate has said, "I'm an incredibly negative person, so any form of success is only ever going to be a relief to me and set my default position back to neutral."[12]

Tate has been married to American screenwriter Jeff Gutheim since at least 2018.[117]

Charity work

Tate at the Joe Glover Trust charity event in 2010

Tate is a patron of the Laura Crane Youth Cancer Trust, supporting the charity since 2006.[118] Since then, she has hosted a fundraising auction, filmed a five-minute film featuring herself and David Tennant on the set of Doctor Who for the charity's annual ball and taken part in its 2011 calendar with the Huddersfield Giants.[119] She is also the current patron of the Addie Brady Foundation, raising funds for research into high-grade paediatric brain tumours and supporting families with Li–Fraumeni Syndrome,[120] and was a patron of the children's cancer charity the Joe Glover Trust for a number of years since its launching in 2007.[121][122]

Since 2005, Tate has been a frequent supporter of two BBC

Nan in 2009.[125]

In August 2017, after being asked at the Wizard World Chicago convention about what her career would look like if she hadn't become an actress and comedian, Tate said: "I'd definitely work with animals. In fact, sometimes I do feel, 'Oh, am I sort of wasting my time doing [acting] when I should be doing sort of like stuff with animals in need?' because I'm a big animal welfare kind of person, animal rights person." She has supported the animal rescue centre Battersea Dogs & Cats Home on multiple occasions and adopted cats from there.[126][127] In 2018, she presented the BBC One hour-long documentary Saving the British Bulldog about the health issues affecting one of the most popular dog breeds in the UK.[128][129] In 2020, she featured in a video aimed to raise funds for the Zoological Society of London after it was badly impacted by the coronavirus pandemic.[130]
