Sasha in Being Human (UK)


I was just re-watching a season 3 episode of the BBC's Being Human. I have seen the show in its entirety MANY times and for some reason only now noticed that the role of Sasha the "zombie" in episode 3.3 was played by "Alexandra Roach," as caught my eye as I half-watched the closing credits. Of course, I had to come here to confirm! Absolutely amazing transformation! Certainly, the zombie make-up may have been to blame for the fact that I didn't recognize her, but her demeanor, personality, voice, etc.--I never would have associated this flirty, breezy, "in-denial" rotting corpse with the attitude problem with "young Margaret Thatcher"!

I also thought she was skillfully funny in this episode (titled "Type 4," for anyone keeping track) and don't know how the show's regulars kept their cool and composure when this rotting-corpse, in denial about her ripe state, began introducing herself and hitting on the fellas. I loved it!

I'm looking forward to seeing what she does in Anna Karenina!
