    Is the UK industry OK with thicker women?

    By thicker i don't mean fat, but a curvier, "ScarJo" type. I'm not as curvy/heavy as Scarlett but I'm close to it. I'm asking this because i know that the acting industry has always had a preference for thin women (talking about lead "attractive girl" roles...
