is it too late for a Saffy and Sarah spin-off series?!

Jennifer Saunders' Edina and Joanna Lumley's Patsy have plenty of fun tormenting poor Sarah, and it's later implied that she might hold more than platonic feelings for her BFF. Mori has an amusing recurring role in the long-running British sitcom as Sarah, the even geekier best friend of Julia Sawalha's old-before-her-time daughter Saffy.

The latter spent time in an internment camp for Japanese-Americans during World War II, and also consults on the series on matters of historical accuracy. She plays family matriarch Asako Nakayama, co-starring opposite Derek Mia ( Greek) and George Takei. Mori is a main cast member on season two of AMC's The Terror, which centers on a strange series of deaths that plague a Japanese-American community during World War II. As '90s pop fans will remember, Nicola goes into labor during a visit to a nightclub, which results in her being rushed to hospital in the now-iconic 'Spice Bus.' Don't question the plot, just go with the ride! Mori has a prominent supporting role opposite Baby, Ginger, Posh, Scary, and Sporty as the girls' pregnant best friend, Nicola. It's no masterpiece, but the Spice Girls' 1997 movie has become a bit of a cult classic. When we say goodbye to Tosh at the end of season two, it's definitely a sad moment. Her character Toshiko 'Tosh' Sato is a highly intelligent technical wiz who is initially quiet and reserved but later blossoms into a more confident and emotionally open version of herself. It's the perfect excuse to look back (and in one case, forward) at her most memorable roles.Īfter making a one-off appearance in the 2005 Doctor Who episode 'Aliens of London,' Mori became a series regular in darker spin-off series Torchwood when it launched the following year. OG Torchwood cast member Naoko Mori is back on our screens Monday in season two of AMC's The Terror.
