The worst kept secret in American entertainment - be it film, stage or television : be a woman, be an actor and turn 40 years old, and your career is effectively over. You're done.
The American actress Hilary Swank a few years back played the lead in a film called 'Amelia', a biopic about Amelia Earhart. Earhart, for those of you who may not recall, was a famous early 20th century American female aviator who, at the age of 40, mysteriously disappeared and was never seen again. Ever. Which, when you think about it, is right up Hollywood's alley because if you're an actress and you're in Tinseltown and you turn 40, you disappear, too. Never seen again. Never. Ever. The mysteriously vanishing 40-year old actress.

Meaning the same thing as the American phrase "that's what she said," the phrase "as the actress said to the bishop," or "said the actress to the bishop," originates from England probably around the time of World War II. The words are a catchphrase that is used to change a seemingly (and most likely intended to be) innocent statement into a perverted joke.
