Honestly, she seemed to be the only interesting bit of that terrible S3E1 episode and had some promise- until she got killed off unceremoniously.

That being said, S3 was around the time everyone noticed the wheels falling off (not just the people who thought they were getting a mystery show when it was mostly an action thing to begin with), so that probably made her worse than she could have been too...

To be fair, this is the BBC where nepotism is rife.

It’s an old boys club, not so much in terms of gender, but the amount of people who make it to the BBC who come from wealthy, connected and independent/privately educated backgrounds. Something like 7% of all people in the UK are privately educated, yet they make up a far higher proportion of BBC ‘talent’.

For a broadcasting service that is supposed to be representative of us - the people who watch and pay for it - it’s pretty disappointing to be honest.
