Star moves to France
“C.A.T.S. Eyes” star Leslie Ash has moved to France with her professional footballer husband and is taking classes in French. “I can get by in French with what I learned at school. It does actually come back to you,” she said. Ash now lives in Niort, three hours away from Paris, near the coast at La Rochelle, where her husband plays for the Niort team. “I should love to make a French film,” she said. “But you do have to speak the lingo. Although you can be dubbed.” She says London is only an hour away by air if a
part she wants to do comes up. Ash is appearing in a new TV play, “Natural Causes,” with George Cole. Before " “C.A.T.S. Eyes” she had auditioned two or three times for small parts in "Minder” and never got them. ' “Afterwards I went through a period of noone touching me,” she added. “Someone once said, the more well known you are the less you work, and it’s true. It’s just that the parts are better. I’d love to do a thinking person’s situation comedy.”
