Career

Turner, although best known as a comedy performer, made her acting debut in the internationally renowned TV cult drama series Prisoner in a 15-episode guest role.

She is notable for numerous comedy roles including the sketch comedy programs The D-Generation, Fast Forward, Full Frontal, Big Girl's Blouse and Something Stupid.[1]

On Fast Forward Turner (Svetta) recorded a song with cast member Peter Moon (comedian) (Victor), called "Don't Do Your Soviet Bloc".

In the 2000s Turner has received accolades for her performance in Kath & Kim, an ABC (later Seven Network) comedy series which she created, wrote, produced and starred in with her longtime friend and collaborator, Gina Riley. Kath & Kim became the most successful ABC syndicated show in Australian television history. Turner plays Kath Day Knight, one of the leading roles in the show and an occasional recurring character, Prue, a shop keeper at the Fountain Gate Shopping Centre.

Turner reprised the role in the 2005 telemovie Da Kath & Kim Code and the 2012 feature film Kath & Kimderella.[2]

Turner made her West End theatrical debut in the Australian hit play Holding the Man at London's Trafalgar Studios in April 2010.

Personal life

Turner attended Sacré Cœur School in Glen Iris, Victoria, and later studied law at Monash University.[3] Turner graduated from Monash with a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1988.[4] She is married to lawyer John Denton[5] and they have three children including model Anna Denton[6] and actor Nicholas Denton.
