Punching Hugh Grant at the altar in Four Weddings and a Funeral.
Early-life:
Anna Chancellor was born on April 27, 1965, in Richmond, Surrey, into an aristocratic family. She was the daughter of the Hon Mary Joliffe (daughter of William Jolliffe, 4th Baron Hylton, of the Baron Hyltons) and John Chancellor. Her uncle is journalist Alexander Chancellor and her eight-times great aunt was author Jane Austen.

She appeared in Inspector Morse, Poirot and Comedy Playhouse before her big break came in 1994 playing 'Duckface', Hugh Grant's largely hated bride-to-be in Four Weddings and a Funeral. Since then she has had small-screen success in Kavanagh QC and Tipping the Velvet, and appeared in such big-budget outings as A Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Agent Cody Banks 2, Breaking and Entering and St Trinian's. She also had a regular role in Spooks.
