Dont get me wrong Dominic is amazing as Fred, really amazing, and Emily Watson does a solid performance but wow Monica as Rosemary her presence, the nastiness, the pure and utter evil that Monica can instill in her look, her mannerisms its unbelievable. And the scene where she first meets Janet and just screams at her, the anger, the menacing evil....a truly outstanding performance and imo the best one, of the three. Wish we had seen more of her!

Work is the curse of the drinking classes...

I totally agree with you, her on screen presence was barely 10 minutes long yet it was perfect, she was so convincing!

Actually, I came here specifically to call her out as being pretty terrible. I thought here acting was horrible and very overrated. Cooper and Watson were excellent in what was really a very manipulative series.

Rubbish man. She was amazing. Wish they had given her a few more scenes.

I agree. Monica was chilling as RW.

The main cast was stellar, they all did excellent jobs, from the key three to the teenage son. Brilliant.

I'm only about 15 minutes in and she scared the *beep* out of me to such an extent that I came here to see who the actress was.

All of them deserved their awards. But Monica made me more scared of Rosemary than I was simply reading about it online.

Honestly, Monica as Rosemary is scarier than Anthony as Hannibal. Great, creepy as hell performance.
