  The Big Interview: Anita Dobson | Official London Theatre Guide
Nevertheless, Anita Dobson is all bright-eyed and cheery when she bustles into the circle bar five minutes later, having swapped her Elizabethan gown for a grey suit and a fl fedora, perched at a jaunty angle atop her auburn hair.
Dobson seems to have a very philosophical, worldly-wise outlook on life, as if, unlike her character, any painful experiences have long since been put behind her.
Dobson was invited to the party, but of course, she’s at the New Ambassadors looking into that abyss when Pat, Pauline et al are downing their champers, which seems to say it all.

  Anita Dobson at AllExperts
Anita Dobson (born April 29 1949 in Stepney, London) is an English television actress.
Anita's first starring role was in the 1983 sitcom Up the Elephant and Round the Castle, but she is most famous for playing the emotionally battered and alcoholic landlady, Angie Watts, in the BBC1 soap opera, EastEnders.
Interestingly, Anita was not the first person to be cast as Angie - another actress, Jean Fennell, had already began recording when it was decided that her performance did not gel with the original idea of the character, and so Anita landed the role at the last minute.
