Character & Cast

Tattycoram is a young servant girl who's been brought up as a companion to the beautiful and well-meaning but utterly spoilt Pet Meagles. Tattycoram is understandably resentful of her servile status and often struggles to control her anger. Whenever she flies into a rage, her employer, Mr Meagles, tries telling her to count to five and twenty, but it doesn't work. Young and impressionable, Tatty attracts the attention of the mysterious loner, Miss Wade.

Freema's a familiar face thanks to her role as spunky Dr Martha Jones in Doctor Who and Torchwood. Freema's up and coming roles are in the BBC remake of Survivors and a spin-off of Law and Order.
