Suzie Costello

I find it pretty weird that a main cast member is left out of this article, Indira Varma as Suzie Costello. I tried to put her in but the edits are not sticking so I would not be able to rate this as a good article. 67.206.162.48 (talk) 20:54, 28 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Late answer, but her presentation as part of the main cast in episode 1 was meant to hide the fact she was killed off in the same episode; she was effectively a recurring character only appearing during her temporary resurrection or a brief flashback after that.
