Born in Swansea, 1969, Zeta-Jones acted throughout her childhood and starred in a British revival of 42nd Street when only 15. She became the tabloids' favourite homegrown beauty with The Darling Buds Of May, a popular ITV series where she conducted an extremely improbable relationship with Philip Franks, who went on to feature regularly on Countdown. Despite her high profile in the UK, moving to Hollywood was still ambitious. The gamble seemed to have backfired until Entrapment in 1999 - after that she quickly shot up the ranks, becoming most famous for marrying Michael Douglas and starring alongside him in Steven Soderbergh's multi Oscar nominated Traffic.
