Let's make this birthday one to remember.

44 years old (Born on September 19, 1980)

Happy Birthday, Martha Howe-Douglas! From making medical drama spectacularly hilarious in "Doctors", to teaching history through laughs and crazy wigs in "Horrible Histories," your amazing talent has us laughing with delight (and secretly learning a thing or two!). Who knew the Tudors and Victorians could ever be this funny?

And let's not forget your BAFTA nomination—clearly even pompous historical figures would approve! Your outstanding performances continue to capture our imaginations year after year. Hope your birthday celebration is so fantastic that historians centuries from now will say it was absolutely legendary. Cheers—here’s to many more superbly silly adventures ahead!
