'You can’t sit in the dark for that long without going insane.'

star Niamh Algar to discuss Sue's journey, her genuinely shocking storylines, and of course, Serpent Baby.It feels like a new series, and that's what's so great about working with a genre like this. It's that you can bend the rules of the story, because you're essentially opening up a brand new door by relocating the characters to a part of the planet that we haven’t seen before.

I think we naturally make light of things when situations are too dark. You know, it's people laughing at a funeral. You kind of have to balance it out. For a character to go to very dark places, you need to balance it with wit, humour and lightness, because you can’t sit in the dark for that long without going insane.

So I care a lot about the characters that I play. It's so important to me that I care about them, because if I don't care about them, why should the audience care about them? It's been really great to see that over the last couple of years, with these characters that people connect with.] Enid.

Sue is such a strong presence on this show, but she's also quite vulnerable and open in a lot of ways too. Can you talk us through balancing those aspects of your character? With this character, it's balancing the two, between strength and vulnerability. I feel like Sue's vulnerability comes from a place of pure love; it’s someone trying to have a family.

And I think that's the thing that you can't ever be prepared for: how you're breaking down emotionally as the actor, but delivering such out-of-this-world kind of dialogue that you've built over the last two seasons, so it doesn't feel odd.
