Happy Valley's Sarah Lancashire shows off stylish new look after epic finale
Happy Valley actress Sarah Lancashire has been photographed donning a new hairstyle just days after the explosive finale of the BBC show aired.
Catherine Cawood actress Sarah, 58, donned long blonde locks, which were usually tied back in a low bun, along with a full fringe for her role as the community officer for the Yorkshire police.
But, after her character was seen confronting a muderous, blood-soaked maniac in the epic finale, Sarah appeared to decide it was time for a new look.
The actress donned a short, shoulder-length bob with a full fringe as she was spotted out and about near her home in Twickenham, south west London.

"It was fireworks but it wasn’t fireworks. It was sitting over a kitchen table and that is where Happy Valley really thrived. That’s the heart of the whole show. Cups of tea over kitchen tables in kitchens in Yorkshire.
"It’s not a big stunt set pieces on wires and jumping off cliffs, and guns and fireworks. It’s gentle, it’s domestic, it’s human."
Despite the hugely positive reception, Happy Valley writer Sally Wainwright admitted fears the ending would "fall at the final hurdle".
Speaking on Newsnight, she said: "I tend not to very get nervous any more really, I'm kinda philosophical that it is what it is and people will respond how they respond.
James Norton, who played Tommy Lee Royce, called the ending 'perfect' (BBC/Lookout Point/Matt Squire)"But I think because it appeared to be doing very well I was worried it might fall at the final hurdle and people might think it was a disappointing ending in some way but I kinda knew it wasn't. I knew it was what I wanted it to be.
"It was satisfying. I had a real choice about whether to end on a pessimistic note or an optimistic one.
"Which one of them was gonna survive but it was a no brainer to end on an optimistic note with someone like Catherine. She's such a force for good.
"I have Sarah to thank for that ending in many ways. I wrote the first draft and everyone seemed happy with it and she made it clear she wasn't happy with it."
