Marissa’s nightmare begins when she arrives at the address of her son’s friend to find a strange woman.

The woman tells Marissa that she has never heard of either boy. It quickly emerges that Marissa’s son Milo has been kidnapped.

Her part in the critically acclaimed hit series won the red-headed beauty a raft of best actress prizes including an Emmy and two Golden Globes.

Earlier this year Sarah won the best actress Olivier Award for her ­one-woman performance of Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Gray which was a hit in London’s West End.

In her acceptance speech, the mother-of-one said breastfeeding her daughter in the middle of the night gave her the window to learn the 60,000 words of the Oscar Wilde monologue which won her British theatre’s biggest award.

‘I just felt, “What am I doing? Why am I doing a 60,000 word monologue with an eight-month-old baby?” I felt so stupid,’ she admitted.

‘So I was doing a lot of night breastfeeding. And in the evening when I would wake up then, rather than being on my phone, and feeding her I would run over the lines.’

‘I find that if you learn your lines at night and then sleep on them they do go in more effectively.’

Sarah went head-to-head for the gong with fellow TV star Sarah Jessica Parker, 59, of Sex And The City as well as Sheridan Smith, 42, Sophie Okonedo, 55, and Laura Donnelly, 41.

Sarah welcomed her first child, a daughter, with husband, Australian comedian Dave Lawson last May.
