Privacy NoticeDermot O’Leary and Alison Hammond were totally taken aback by Sarah Parish’s transformation for her latest role. The actress graced the This Morning couch to discuss ITV’s newest comedy, Piglets, which is set to premiere on Sunday. Kicking off the interview, Alison said: “Sarah is playing a new police officer in her latest series except this time things are very different.” As they settled in, Sarah dived into details about her character and the show. She shared: “So Piglets is a half an hour comedy about six wannabe police officers who navigate their way through police training school. “And myself and the actor, Mark Heap are…he is so brilliant. He is a superintendent so you have to train him.” “It was such fun to shoot and it comes from the creators of Green Wing and Smack the Pony, so it’s got that really quirky, hilarious edge.,” reports the Mirror.

Alison couldn’t resist commenting: “You are unrecognisable, I can’t believe it.” To which Sarah responded with a chuckle: “It’s a good wig.” The conversation continued as Alison asked: “Did you have any input on the creation of that character?” Sarah confirmed with a nod: “I did. I had a really strong idea of who I thought Judy would look like and I figured she would probably have watched Juliette Bravo when she was younger.” Viewers were equally stunned by Sarah’s look during her appearance, with social media buzzing with reactions.
Sarah Parish has completely transformed for her new role
One viewer remarked: “Sarah Parish is fab, she looks so different from when she was in Trollied #ThisMorning.” “#ThisMorning Thought it was Ms Jenna for a moment,” one viewer tweeted, clearly taken aback by the resemblance. Another chimed in with surprise, “OMG she looks so different.” Ahead of its launch, ITV came under fire over the title of the new comedy, Piglets. The Police Federation has issued a statement voicing their issues with it. Acting National Chair of the Police Federation of England and Wales Tiffany Lynch believes the name of the comedy series is an insult. She stated: “The new ITV show titled ‘Piglets’ is highly offensive to police officers risking their lives to protect the public every day by providing an emergency service. It is a disgusting choice of language to use for the title of a TV programme.” She added: “”Our colleagues are working hard and keeping people safe under relentless negative pressure at the moment, insulting our new in service officers is unhelpful. The name of this show is also inflammatory against a landscape of rising threats and violence against officers. “We should not be put at further risk for viewing numbers, our officers deserve respect, not humiliation for the job they are undertaking. “It is actually incredibly dangerous to incite more negativity and misinformation against a public sector service that’s already under so much pressure.” This Morning airs weekdays at 10am on ITV.Story SavedYou can find this story in My Bookmarks.Or by navigating to the user icon in the top right.Follow OK!
