Biografia

When Emma was given the screenplay that included the tongue-twisting "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter" speech on a Friday afternoon, her co-star Dawn French told her she would never be able to remember it by the next Friday when filming began in front of a live audience. That weekend, Emma and her husband drove to the country to visit relatives and Emma practised the speech over one hundred times in the car and learnt it perfectly for rehearsals the next Monday. Dawn French was speechless.

Suffered from asthma and a severe allergy to animals which caused her death from heart attack on February 21, 2018, less than three weeks away from what would have been her 54th birthday on March 11.

Best known for her role as verger Alice Tinker in the popular sitcom The Vicar of Dibley (1994).

Trained at the Webber Douglas Academy in the 1980s, where she was classmates with Ross Kemp. Other alumni include Terence Stamp, Hugh Bonneville, Rupert Friend, Antony Sher, Daniel Hunt, Matthew Goode, Sue Johnston, Minnie Driver and Julian Fellowes.

Daughter of John Chambers (born John S. W. Chambers 1926) and Noelle Chambers (born Noelle Gwynedd Strange 1925, died 26 April 2016) who married in 1950.
