My Take
Ashley Madekwe is the kind of working actress I find genuinely admirable. From Mile End in London to Secret Diary of a Call Girl, then American series like Revenge and Salem, she built her name on craft rather than scandal. Her BAFTA nomination for County Lines confirmed what I'd suspected: she's a serious dramatic talent, not just a familiar face. I also like that she's a blogger with her own voice, someone who shapes her own narrative. Actors who choose roles carefully and stay grounded tend to age well, and she's exactly that sort. I'm rooting for her.
