I actually don't watch soaps either (plus, being in the US, it might be harder for me to, even if I were curious), but I saw her recently in something called Five Days with David Morrissey and I thought she had a stellar performance in that. I actually didn't put together she was in SJA until recently, but I thought she was great in that as well. :)

I admit to being a bit weak for BBC Dramas. Anytime I see one pop up (such as with Five Days, actually), I try to check them out. I mean, not only do I usually recognize a majority of the actors, usually the writing is infinitely better than most stuff we have on US telly.

Anyway, enough babbling. I'll have to check out your other post. I'm thinking of actually rewatching the episode for a third time (this time with subtitles, in case I missed anything!) after that. I just can't get enough of having something new of David's to watch again.
