Norfolk's woman

The actress is Amanda Ryan and her character is called 'Lettice Howard'.

Perhaps Lettice Howard is supposed to be an odd version of Lettice Knollys, who was Elizabeth I's cousin once removed and who secretly married Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester. While she was related to the Howards (her great-grandmother was a Howard), this was never her surname. Nor was she linked with the Duke of Norfolk. But perhaps she is an entirely fictitious character.

The name of the actress is Amanda Ryan. Her name in "Elizabeth" is Lettice Howard. The only reason I know her name is because she was in the movie Britannic.
