Laura Greenwood
Greenwood's big breakthrough came in 2006 when at age 14 she starred as Penny Philips opposite Helen Mirren in the two-part conclusion to ITV's Prime Suspect. Critics praised her work in the drama, with David Bianculli of the New York Daily News writing, "The scenes she shares with Mirren are nothing short of phenomenal," and Robert Lloyd of the Los Angeles Times calling her "thoroughly impressive."
Before her breakthrough, Greenwood had already participated in two ITV productions, the children's series My Life as a Popat and the drama Walk Away and I Stumble. She also had small roles in notable film productions The Brothers Grimm and V for Vendetta.
In 2008 she appeared in the ITV soap opera Echo Beach. She also made minor appearances as a fictionalized version of herself in Echo Beach's sister series, Moving Wallpaper.
Greenwood also appeared in Messiah V as Leah Wallace, broadcast on BBC One in January 2008. As well as this, she would appear in another BBC-produced series, playing the one-time role of Jessica in HolbyBlue.
