SO WHERE ARE THE MAIN CHARACTERS NOW?

JANE LEEVES, 59, and Peri Gilpin, who plays Roz, are such close friends that Peri was reportedly present at the birth of Jane’s daughter, Isabella, in 2001. The pregnancy was concealed on TV with a storyline that Daphne was over-eating. Her husband is U.S. TV exec Marshall Coben — they were introduced by David Hyde Pierce. She is currently in U.S. medical drama The Resident.

KELSEY GRAMMER, 66, struggled with fame and went into rehab for alcohol and drug addiction in 1996. His marriage to third wife Camille Donatacci lasted 14 years but is chiefly remembered for the embarrassing details she shared when she joined the cast of The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills. He is now happily married to Brit Kayte Walsh. He has seven children.

DAVID HYDE PIERCE, 61, came out as gay in 2007 and married TV director Brian Hargrove, a year later. His distinctive voice has featured in animated movies such as A Bug’s Life, as well as The Simpsons, but it is on Broadway that he is happiest — winning a Tony as best leading actor for Curtains, in 2007, and starring in hits such as Spamalot and Hello, Dolly!

PERI GILPIN, 59, set up a production company with best friend Jane Leeves called Bristol Cities in the Noughties, and tried to relaunch The Vicar Of Dibley in the States. Peri has guested on several hit shows, including Desperate Housewives, Grey’s Anatomy, Modern Family, Men At Work and Masters Of Sex. She has suggested she’d be wary of a Frasier revival.
