“It’s great to take a break in a corset,” British actress Nel Hudson smiled and described her role in the BBC’s new thriller “The informer”. A nervous Hudson may be the version of the actress you are most familiar with. She wore ITV’s Victoria, where she played the Queen’s dressing table, Mrs. Skerrett, at Outlander, she played Laoghaire MacKenzie, the fierce Scottish conspirators and Claire’s emotional duel in Jamie. In the story, substance and theme, the informant can no longer set off.
The play tells the story of Lazar and tells the story of Lazar, a cleverly played role of a young British Muslim, Nabhaan Rizwan, who was detained by the police after a minor drug arrest. These drugs were purchased by Charlotte, played by Hudson. She and pink hair and a soft accent will soon find themselves in A&E. As a result, Lazar began to enter the clutches of anti-terrorist official Gabe, played by a seemingly troubled Paddy Considine, who found a lever on Lazar to persuade him to become a police informant. This is a dark story, and it is precisely the high and necessary censorship of Muslim stereotypes on television.
Hudson’s role may have a familiar stereotype, but as the series continues, the deepening relationship between Charlotte and Lazar reveals another aspect of chameleon jumping, which must be done every day. With Sharon D Clarke, Sunetra Sarker and Bel Powley playing a supporting role, Bustle and Hudson sit down to talk about improvisation, East London and an inspiring reading list.
Charlotte Owen: What attracted you to Informer’s role?
Nell Hudson: This is one of the scripts I received, and although it’s not that big, I know I want to be a part of it. I think writing is absolutely wonderful, and every character, no matter how big, will be part of the entire exhibition world and very attractive.
CO: How does your character evolve over time?
NH: Charlotte is a full 3D character, but her role in Raza’s life is on the other side of himself. He must be in the presence of a chameleon. Charlotte represents this wealthy, middle class, wealthy world, when he was near Charlotte – we later saw him in Charlotte and her family – we saw what Lazar played in his life. Another role.
CO: Have you taken this film in London?
NH: Yes, almost. Some of us went to Kent to film Charlotte’s family home, but almost everyone shot in London and East London, which is a benefit for me because I live in East London. I did go home from the suit one day and it was great.
