Tributes have been paid to a comedian and actress from Chiswick who was famed for her many voices, and who once appeared as a body double for Sharon Stone.

Sunna Jarman, who used to run the popular Mixt Nutz comedy nights at the Tabard Theatre, in Bath Road, Chiswick, died last weekend of cancer, aged 40.

The mother-of-two was a regular guest on LBC Radio's News Panel and on Talksport Radio's Late Show with Ian Collins.

Her many stage and screen appearances included work at London's revered 99 Club and for MTV, and she was well known for her many accents, voices and characters.

She previously worked as a model and was reportedly the body double for Sharon Stone on posters for the film The Muse.

Features Agency director Jennifer Clarke, who represented Ms Jarman, said: "When the stunning Sunna strolled into Features Agency with her shoulder-length blonde hair and blue/green eyes in 1999 she immediately was a stand out talent.

"A comedian, actress, writer, sketch performer, model, Sunna was definitely a gem to represent. She engaged us all with her wit and fast thinking introducing us to her many accents, voices and characters as if in an audition. She had us in awe...... laughing.

"Sunna was a beautiful lady inside and out. All of us at Features, a family run business, will miss her and send our respects to her family. Sunna was a talent that will be truly missed."

Her family has set up a JustGiving page in aid of The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity, as she was treated at The Royal Marsden Hospital. It has already received donations of more than £2,600.

In a message on the page they described her as 'funny, sweet and just too damn gorgeous'

"Hers was a life full of love and laughs - she'd take the stage at the first opportunity, not to show off, but because she genuinely had something special or ridiculous to share - and simply couldn't keep it to herself anymore" they added.

"She'll be sadly missed by her husband and two boys, her family and friends - but will of course be forever in our hearts.

"An example to us all that the ugliness and banalities of life are to be ridiculed mercilessly, and all the good, good love in life is to be shared at every opportunity."
