Kirsten Cooke, born Kirstin Hiern-Cooke, (4 October 1952), is a British actress best known for playing Michelle Dubois in 'Allo 'Allo!.
Early in her acting career, she appeared in small roles in comedies such as Happy Ever After and was an occasional member of the ensemble of comedy actors who appeared in Dave Allen's sketches across many different shows he had.
She auditioned for the role of lusty waitress Yvette in 'Allo 'Allo! but lost the role to Vicki Michelle. Cooke instead was cast in the other role Michelle had auditioned for, the fearless Michelle of the Resistance. Michelle became Cooke's most iconic role with her outfit of beret and trench coat (like all the little French girls wear, she claims), and one of the show's most memorable Character Catchphrases, "Listen very carefully, I shall say zis only once".
Her final acting role came in 2002 in the fourteenth series of ChuckleVision, playing Maddy in six episodes.
