My Take
Denise Gough is exactly the sort of performer I gravitate toward: an actor who earned her reputation on stage before the wider world caught on. Winning the Laurence Olivier Award for Best Actress is no small thing, and you can feel that theatrical discipline in everything she does on screen, from the crime drama Paula to her steely presence in Andor. She doesn't trade on flash or a curated public persona; she trades on craft. That makes her harder to pin down and, to me, far more rewarding to watch. I suspect her recognition is only going to grow, and deservedly so.
