Lucy DavisLucy DavisShe's ditched Blighty for sunnier Californian climes.

But Hollywood hasn't taught Lucy Davis much about Yank-speak.

The 34-year-old, best known for playing Dawn Tinsley in The Office alongside Ricky Gervais, has gone all Hollywood with her new role in Matthew Perry's Studio 60 On The Sunset Strip.
