Sally Thomsett (born 3 April 1950) is an English Actress who starred as Phyllis in the film 'The Railway Children' (1970) and played Jo in the TV sitcom 'Man About the House' (1973–1976). She also appeared as Janice in the film 'Straw Dogs' (1971) and Nemo in 'Baxter' (1973).

Thomsett was cast as Phyllis in The Railway Children despite the character being 11 years old and Thomsett being 20. Jenny Agutter, who played her elder sister Bobbie in the film, was in fact two years younger than Thomsett.  

Thomsett was contractually forbidden to reveal her age during production, and was likewise not allowed to smoke, drink, drive a car, or be seen in public with her boyfriend. The film crew were unaware of her true age and treated her as they would a child (e.g. giving her sweets), while addressing the younger Agutter as they would an adult. 

During an appearance on a BBC children's television programme shortly after, Thomsett was told, "I wouldn't dream of asking a lady her age, but you're obviously quite a bit older than the part you played in the film". 

She received a nomination for the BAFTA Film Award for Newcomer to Leading Film Roles.
