We loved her as kooky Maggie in Extras...
And it seems the Americans were pretty impressed too, because Ashley Jenson has won a top role in a US sitcom.
The comedy actress, who plays Ricky Gervais' pal in his hit British comedy series, will star in ABC's Ugly Betty.
She'll take the part of Christina, the best friend of lead character Betty, who is played by actress America Fererra, 22.
Ashley, 36, will have to move to New York after filming of the second series of Extras wraps.
An insider told the Daily Mirror: "This is a major break. She is over the moon."
It's thought that Ashley originally planned to do an American accent for her new role, but will now stick to her native Scottish tones.
