- Actress who had her breakout role as Anne Frank on the BBC's The Diary of Anne Frank. In 2013, she was cast as Meera Reed in the HBO series Game of Thrones. In 2016, she landed her first feature film role in The Levelling.
- She had her first acting experience as a member of the National Youth Theatre.
- It was fantastic returning to 'Being Human'. When I got cast in the role, at first I just thought it was for one episode, and the fans were really great about it, and it was really nice having that reaction.
- My parents are big Shakespeare fans.
- I was really attracted to doing 'Game of Thrones' because I thought the character of Meera was absolutely amazing.
- I'd been going up for things, but I hadn't got anything, and then 'Anne Frank' came out, and there was a sudden flurry. I got a call saying they wanted to see me at the Globe, which was incredible because I'd been coming here since I was 12.
- Everyone loves a slice of period-drama-pie, but I think the success of 'Upstairs Downstairs' is really down to the wonderful format that Jean Marsh and Eileen Atkins created.
