Martine McCutcheon is a Laurence Olivier Award-winning actress, television star, singer and one of Britain’s best-loved personalities.
Martine rose to fame through her role as Tiffany Mitchell in BBC's EASTENDERS, where over 22 million viewers tuned in to see her final scene in a special episode screened on New Years Eve 1998. She then went on to record several top ten singles and achieved international success reaching #1 in 5 countries with her hit "Perfect Moment".
2001 saw her take to the stage as she went on to play Eliza Doolittle in Sir Cameron Mackintosh's West End production of MY FAIR LADY at the Theatre Royal. In 2002, following on from fantastic reviews, she won the Laurence Olivier Award for 'Best Actress in a musical'.
Her first major film role, and one that saw her catapulted to global success, was as Natalie in the Richard Curtis romantic comedy LOVE ACTUALLY. Martine played opposite Hugh Grant, Bill Nighy, Emma Thompson and Liam Neeson in this box office hit - culminating in her winning 'Best Transatlantic Breakthrough Artist' at the 2003 MTV Movie Awards.
She could be seen starring alongside actor Jason Donovan in ITV show ECHO BEACH. Attracting over 5 million viewers on a weekly basis, the show was cleverly inter-linked with MOVING WALLPAPER - a comedy-drama set in the fictional production offices of the soap.
Her first novel, The Mistress, published by Pan Macmillan, was just released to fantastic reviews. Warm, sexy and heart-wrenchingly moving, the book offers a refreshingly modern take on what it is that women want.
2010 saw Martine release her new Matalan Homeware Collection, 'INDULGENCE', which launched in January.
Martine also starred alongside Bill Nighy in a BBC Radio 4 Play entitled "CHARLES PARIS MYSTERY: CAST IN ORDER OF DISAPPEARANCE".
