## Resource

WARNING: This episode contains spoilers for Episode Four of Grantchester Season 11. In real life, actor Tessa Peake-Jones couldn’t be further from the dour and opinionated vicarage housekeeper Sylvia Chapman. Tessa is jolly, gentle, and loves to smile—but these differences are exactly why playing Mrs. C is such a joy for her. In this conversation, we talk with Tessa about the early days of Grantchester , what drives Mrs. C, and how her character has opened up through experience over the past 11 seasons.
