Mamma Mia Star Julie Walters Traces Irish Roots | Who Do You Think You Are

[@rw6391]

Never lost her accent, Proud of my fellow Brummie

[@cat_pb]

love her personality !!

[@andreaandrea6716]

I first saw her in Educating Rita ... and was smitten. And remain so to this day: What a stellar human being! I would watch anything she's in... because she imbues anything she touches with life., with energy, with quirk, with fairy dust... she brings something EXTRA to her roles. There are a few actors who are simply BORN INTERESTING... and she is one of those. The 'It' factor!

[@hillyplays29]

Julie Walters is phenomenal!!!🥰

[@andreaandrea6716]

Yes!!!

[@gordontaylor5373]

I've always liked Julie. She seems a real sweetheart.

[@jacquelinesmith6712]

Very well known for Mrs. Weasley in the Harry Potter series. I love this woman.

[@andreaandrea6716]

How can anyone resist the charms of the lovely Julie Walters? I think she's the Bee's Knee's and the Cat's Pajama's all rolled into one.

[@smith3163]

I loved Mama Mia, but this is Molly Weasley. ❤️⚡️

[@fauxmanchu8094]

One of my favourite actresses. She is an awesome and towering talent. Julie is unforgettable in all her movies.

[@andreaandrea6716]

Yes!!!!!! Yes, yes, yes!! So agree.

[@sodoffbaldrick3038]

My Great-Great Grandparents emmigrated from County Mayo in the 1850's to Southborough Massachusetts. My Great-Grandmother Kate LaValle was born and is buried there.

[@patriciajrs46]

Very cool! I didn't realize she played Molly Weasley!! Awesome sauce.

[@ShanaiCollins]

God bless that woman! my heroine she's my inspiration to be an actress!

[@michelles2299]

Julie is the spitting image of her mum, I too have irish roots my maternal grandmother was an O'neill

[@cynhanrahan4012]

Oh my, Miss Julie, you look like your mother.

[@TheBlazingDead]

Shout out to all the Irish Clarke's out there! 😀

[@sharikraft1706]

Julie is so cute. I would love to meet her. Because I feel the same way... my Irish roots call me to Ireland. It’s a fantasy in the back of my head too!

[@Nothing-zw3yd]

I think some of her best work was playing Petula Gordino in "Dinnerladies".

[@annetteturner5954]

My grandfather was William Cullen OBrien.

[@mo19702009]

Mrs. Julie Walters like a gringo would say... "- I feel you. -" You´re such a likeable person. You´re dog is so beautiful.

[@elisabethnerolk2283]

I love Mrs. Weasley! ;)

[@annetteturner5954]

I wish to see Ireland where my OBrien McCaffrey family so long ago lived.

[@paulwade8825]

u can see why Irish republic was started , I love Ireland and open minded country

[@davidhollinghurst2115]

It might soon be an ENGLISH republic as well

[@patriciajrs46]

@@davidhollinghurst2115 That would not be good.

[@mkpinero5511]

Mrs. Molly Weasley ❤❤❤

[@ohmeowzer1]

[@rebeccagreggforeman4936]

Calendar Girls! 🥰

[@ohmeowzer1]

Very interesting ty

[@VictoriaN72]

Is there a full episode?

[@cynhanrahan4012]

No, but the entirety is available in bits.

[@Nottherebutthere]

What a tease. Show the whole episode, or don't show anything at all

[@elizabethbower2168]

I associate her as being a star in Dinnerladies

[@Lori79Butterfly]

So grandma Bridget was a little too big for her britches! What a haughty woman for someone who came from a poverty stricken background.

[@orlafleming2264]

"thought it was the Jehovah witness'"

[@batchint]

a fair caviet is a certain appearance on the graham norton..

[@simonaivancic528]

yes, rural > urban

[@annetteturner5954]

Good heavens Julie could we be cousins, my baby girl is named Julie.

[@annetteturner5954]

Yes my DNA goes to Mayo Ireland.

[@PurpleAlogia]

Sounds like in Peaky Blinders..

[@Cav2508]

Louisa Weber She was born in Birmingham, that explains why.

[@PurpleAlogia]

@@Cav2508 You're right. And also the story with the bar maid. :D

[@tomboz777]

I like how she speaks with a general RP but the Brummie keeps slipping out every other sentence.

[@rw6391]

She's a Brummie as were the Peaky blinders

[@Garapetsa]

100% Greek specifically pontic Greek, specifically Hittite. Don't know anything before that.

[@LauraW102]

This is incorrectly titled; it should be HARRY POTTER star Julie Walters. No one cares about Mamma Mia.
