This post is a good reminder I still need to catch up with all the Jodie episodes.

I think I've only seen Olly act in Penny Dreadful. Which isn't really enough to judge his acting skills.

if you want to witness olly at 100% go watch "it's a sin" - it's so good (and sad)

Agreed 'It's a Sin' is great. But for me Lydia West and Omari Douglas had more range in it than Olly. I would love to see them have a shot at Doctor Who, Lydia would knock it of the park with tempered rage and Omari would bring sass. Olly in five years sure give him a shot then.

100% agree - i loved lydia (and related the most to her character) but omari especially really touched my heart, his portrayal was so powerful and also fun. honestly the whole cast was so good

I know. I can't believe Callum hadn't had more acting credits. Colin broke my heart!!
