NY Times Reviews Law & Order: UK (and Freema Agyeman)!

From the review of Law & Order: UK by Mike Hale...
"The standouts so far are Bradley Walsh (Coronation Street), who gets the right blend of humor and resignation in the Paul Sorvino-Jerry Orbach veteran detective slot, and Freema Agyeman (Martha Jones of Dr. Who), who covers several bases as the junior prosecutor. "She’s both the minority idealist, played for three seasons by Richard Brooks..."
"...and the hot babe who often solves the case, played by a succession of actresses (none hotter than Ms. Agyeman)." (emphasis mine)
 But then, we at Atomic Kommie Comics™ already knew that!

Fantastic Femmes--Charlotte Lewis

Note: this page has been updated with NEW info  
HERE!
(1986)
Teen model turned actress Charlotte Lewis made her film debut in Roman Polanski's 1985 film Pirates at the age of 16.
What was not known at the time was that the director may have molested the then-underage girl before filming began!
She's had an on-again, off-again film-tv career, working for several years straight, doing other things for several years, then returning to show business, then disappearing again.
She also posed for Playboy in 1993.
(Pirates, 1985)


Interestingly, almost all her film / tv work has been genre! (out of 27 projects, over 20 were genre!)
She hasn't appeared onscreen since 2003.
Trivia: Dated Mickey Rourke, Eric Clapton, and Charlie Sheen while appearing in movie or video projects with them!

NOTE: Google searches tend to confuse her with the same-named character played by Rebecca Mader from the tv series LOST.
Charlotte has not appeared on LOST.
(with Charlie Sheen, 1986)
