Yes it is the girl who played Twinkle in Dinnerladies & her name is Maxine Peake.

Definitely Maxine Peake , an article I read recently said she has lost huge amounts of weight through sticking to a Weightwatchers diet.

When she turned up slim for the 2nd series of dinnerladies, having had 'fat jokes' aimed at her in the 1st series, Victoria Wood was allegedly furious.
