Suzanne

Suzanne is one of the many hopefuls drifting through the film and TV sets of Extras, angling for a bigger break than the background work she's landed. She's chatty, eager to be noticed, and quick to insert herself into whatever conversation is happening near the cameras, treating every shoot as a possible opportunity.

Extras thrives on the gap between how extras see themselves and how the industry sees them, and Suzanne is a neat little instrument of that comedy. Charlotte Palmer plays her with a chirpy persistence that never quite reads as pathetic, which is exactly the tightrope the show's best minor characters walk.
