38 | !!Tropes associated with her career: |
39 | |
40 | * IAmNotSpock: Angel indirectly referenced this trope in an interview to publicize ''Series/DancingOnTheEdge'' in which she voiced her pleasure that the miniseries aired so soon after ''Series/{{Merlin|2008}}'' had finished. Having worked on the minseries in the hiatus between seasons four and five of the show, her appearance as a jazz singer so quickly on the heels of ''Series/{{Merlin|2008}}'' immediately dislodged the image people had of her as Guinevere. |
41 | * StarMakingRole: It was not five years as Guinevere on ''Series/{{Merlin|2008}}'' that got her the most attention, but her SmallRoleBigImpact role on ''Series/DancingOnTheEdge'' in which she was able to show off her singing talent and was used extensively in publicity. |
42 | * ThoseTwoActors: She has turned up in a startling number of works with Creator/AnthonyHead. |
