Biography
Martha Howe-Douglas co-created and starred in Horrible Histories, the sketch-comedy phenomenon that defined British children's television. Born on 19 September 1980 in England, she is a screenwriter and actor. As a member of the Them There collective, she wrote and starred in productions including Yonderland and Ghosts alongside her collaborators. She also played receptionist Donna Parmar in the BBC One daytime soap Doctors. Virgo-born and operating under life-path number 5—the numerology of restlessness, freedom, and adaptability—Howe-Douglas channels that five-energy into ensemble comedy writing and performance. Screenwriters balance narrative structure with character voice; actors embody those voices on screen. Her dual practice as both writer and performer, rooted in the British comedy collective tradition, positions her as a hybrid creator rather than a specialist in either discipline alone.
