Potterheads will recognise actress Fiona Shaw AKA MI6 operative Carolyn Martens as Aunt Petunia Dursley from the Harry Potter film series.

The Irish actress was awarded a CBE in 2001, having worked extensively in theatre for the Royal Shakespeare Company and the National Theatre and winning the Olivier Award for Best Actress twice.

Although he wasn't a huge character, he was shown to be a loving and caring husband to Eve, but as the show went on and she became more obsessed with Villanelle, cracks started to show in their relationship and he eventually left their apartment.
It had looked like Niko was murdered in front of Eve's eyes in season three, but it was later revealed he'd survived the attack.

Sean previously appeared in an episode of Midsomer Murders, but Killing Eve has been his breakout performance.

Having studied Arabic at SOAS, she was basically asking to be recruited. A calm, experienced presence in MI6, she has absolutely no time for the posh, white men who have failed upwards within the organisation and makes it known. The reason she hasn't been highly promoted is because she refuses to suck up or play the game.'

This is a man-boy so used to getting what he wants that people automatically just give it to him. Hugo wafted through Eton and Oxford, and was absolutely delighted to get the tap on the shoulder (from an old friend of Daddy's). He's not remotely surprised or grateful that, in his twenties, he is in a major Counter-Terrorism department in MI6. He's totally disrespectful to his elders and betters entitlement personified, but unfortunately, he is also completely irresistible. Kenny absolutely hates him.'
