What jet lag? Jaime Murray looks flawless in a chic red dress as she jets in to the UK for early morning television appearance
Judging by her bright smile and sparkling appearance, one would never have guessed Jaime Murray was suffering from jet lag on Tuesday morning.
The 35-year-old actress had flown in from Los Angeles the night before to make an early morning television appearance on This Morning.
But with a flawless face of make-up and looking stunning in a red dress, there was no sign of Jaime's tiredness as she settled down for a chat with Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby about her new TV show Defiance.

However, it may have been the thought of catching up with Schofield that kept Jaime going through her tiredness, as she admitted to being a huge fan of the silver-haired fox.
She tweeted on Tuesday morning: 'Horribly jet lagged but woke up after night of 1 hours sleep remarkably perky and excited as off 2 @itvthismorning with @hollywills and @schofe.'
She later tweeted in response to a fan's comment: 'I've been an avid fan of @Schofe since Gordon The Gopher days.'

Jaime's tweets come after she previously admitted to having something of a schoolgirl crush on the 51-year-old presenter.
‘When I came back to the UK, I did This Morning with Philip Schofield, and when I was coming back on the aeroplane I was quite excited and nervous about meeting him because growing up, I had a bit of a crush on Philip and I had a bit of a crush on Gordon the Gopher,’ she recently told What’s on TV.
But Jaime managed to control any nerves she was feeling to chat to Schofield and Holly about her role on Defiance.
Following her chat a cheerful Jaime posed for photos and greeted fans outside ITV studios, where she opted to wear a stylish cream mac over her dress despite the heat.

Essex-born Jaime moved to the US after landing a part in cult TV series Dexter in 2007, but she admits it took her longer than expected to settle in Southern California.
'Everyone thinks England and America are the same as we have the same language, but I felt like an alien as an English person living in America,' she told The Sun earlier this year.
'Sometimes I would say things and people would look at me as though I was mad. Now I have close friends, they tell me they have no idea what I’m talking about, so I do have some insight into what it is like being an alien!'

The actress also opened up about her new role as pale skinned alien Stahma Tarr - a part that frequently requires her to strip off.
'My species also seem to hang out in the bath quite a lot,' she said. 'There is a little bit of hot tub action which obviously requires stripping off.
'So I had to be bikini ready. But out of all the scenes I have done throughout my career I felt more fully clothed than ever because I'm painted from head to toe in make-up.'
