Nicola Coughlan in "Barbie"

And, while not officially British, we couldn't ignore our Irish bestie. Getting her start as the "the wee lesbian" Claire Devlin in Channel 4 comedy "Derry Girls", Nicola Coughlan is better known these days for playing Penelope Featherington in "Bridgerton".

The Irish actress has blossomed over the first two seasons of the Netflix, and with the stunning character stills revealed from season three, Penelope is about to show the Ton exactly who she is. With the upcoming season focussing on the relationship between Penelope and Colin (Luke Newton), Coughlan is set to be more prominent than she has previously been on the show.

"Barbie" allows the actor to go back to her comedic roots, playing a diplomat Barbie with bright red hair, and kitted out in sparkly pink.
