Early-life:
Felicity Ann Kendal was born on September 25, 1946, in Olton, Warwickshire. She made her stage debut at nine months. Her childhood was spent touring India acting in Shakespearean productions directed by her father Geoffrey and co-starring her mother, Laura Lidell. She attended 13 schools in quick succession.

Sister Jennifer, also an actress, died in 1984.

More recently she appeared in Michael Winner's comedy Parting Shots, light-hearted drama Rosemary and Thyme, and an episode of Doctor Who, though she prefers to work on stage. She gained a new set of fans by appearing on Strictly Come Dancing in 2010. In 2013, she won rave reviews for a London stage revival of Alan Ayckbourn's Relatively Speaking.
