Olga plays Fiona Carter in Spooks, wife of Adam, played by Rupert Penry-Jones. Fiona's devoted to her job. She thrives on constantly switching identities and loves the lying.
Olga's first ever TV role was in The Vice*. She played Dougie's (Marc Warren) girlfriend and ended up tied to a bed in a bondage scene. She says it's not the kind of role she would take nowadays.
She went on to appear in Gormenghast alongside an all-star cast including Stephen Fry, Fiona Shaw* and Jonathan Rhys-Meyers*. She also starred with Robson Green in Take Me*, a drama about wife-swapping.
Olga guested in the popular drama Monarch of the Glen. She appeared in one episode playing Duncan's French penpal. The character caused much confusion when she arrived expecting Duncan to be Laird, so Duncan and Archie (Alastair Mackenzie*) had to swap places.
Olga may be best known in the UK for her role in Spooks, but in America she is famous for playing the lesbian corporate spy Lena Kundera in the popular soap All My Children.
