Character Breakdown

Grace: Grace is the main character in this TV series – she is a 17 year old college student and lives in Blackburn. She lives with her parents and two siblings; her older brother Matthew and younger sister Gabrielle. She is very naive and easily led. Grace feels isolated by her family and is a victim of bullying at college.

MissAnonymous13: This character remains very sinister and anonymous throughout the drama TV series. She is a bad example to Grace and the audience will quickly gather that she has an evil side, she encourages Grace to act out of character and take drastic action.

Leonie: Leonie is the ringleader of the bullies, she is pretty and very popular at college. She victimises Grace as she wants to feel in control and because she is so vulnerable. However, the tables turn and Leonie then becomes a victim to Grace and her mysterious pranks.

Matthew: Matthew is Grace’s older brother who has recently graduated from university after studying medicine. He has received numerous awards and he is favoured by his parents for his intelligence. Matthew and Grace had a close bond until he moved away so now Grace feels as if she has one less person to talk too.

James: James is quite a background character in this TV series: he shares a friendship with Grace. He, again, is vulnerable and shy and is aware that Grace is bullied and lonely but feels he has limited power to help her. He recognises that once Grace begins to talk to MissAnonymous13 she is acting out of character and therefore tries to stop her. Their friendship breaks down when Grace accuses him of being jealous.
