Jace: Ben Vanstone and the writers have very sort of slowly and deliberately doled out Audrey’s past, giving us clues over these past three series and then giving Audrey the sort of inner life that the Mrs. Hall of the original All Creatures wasn’t given. How rewarding has it been to see Audrey be given this the rich complexity that she deserves as a character?

Anna: Oh, it’s…I love it. For me it has really made the experience of doing this, that they’ve put that care and attention and detail into who she is, you know, has her psychology, her backstory, who she is and how she’s come here and why the things matter that matter to her do. And you know, they’ve given her real integrity as a character. And so she’s allowed to be flawed and funny and get things wrong. And also, you know, she is that heart of gold who is that moral center to the household. And it really is really rich and rewarding.
