Suzanne Bertish[1] (born 7 August 1951) is an English actress.

Educated at Woldingham School, Bertish joined the Royal Shakespeare Company and appeared in many of its productions, including its marathon eight-and-a-half-hour version of Charles Dickens's The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby, in which she played three roles.[2] She repeated these three roles in the 1982 television version of the complete play.[3] She was later seen in the BBC Television Shakespeare production of Shakespeare's The Comedy of Errors (1983) as Adriana.[4]

She has also played small roles in several films, including the Harrison Ford vehicle Hanover Street, and the vampire film The Hunger.[5] She had a recurring role as Eleni in the cable television series Rome (2005–2007).[6] In 2009 she had a role in a production of Breakfast at Tiffany's at the Theatre Royal Haymarket.[7]

She also appeared as a female Arnold Rimmer (Arlene Rimmer), in an episode of Red Dwarf, "Parallel Universe" (1988).[8]
