well you always get a non speaking rol because of who you are.

when they were filming Soldaat van Oranje (1977) - Plot summary, they came to Minerva the fraternity/sorority in Leiden and the members all got parts to hang around during a party scene because they had faces like people who study in Leiden, Sarah gets her rol as lady in waiting because she has an old fashioned sort of face and is credible as a lady in waiting in the 19th century.

What Fergie has basically done is arrange for Bea to be an extra and I'd be interested to see if she gets the usual £80 extra's fee and is treated like dirt which most extras are.
