With such a great actress as Jenny Agutter, there is no end to the ways her character could go. As a character she bristled (so I didn't like her that much), but characters can change and Agutter could put just about anything over.

She really should have stayed, she had an interesting character...

I'd still like to see Tessa again. I only just realized that the actress that played her was in Equus with Peter Firth.

Yeh, Jenny Augutter... during the run of Equus, he tried to seduce her lol...
I think Tessa should definitely comeback, just for one episode.

I think the way they wrote the character out was pretty appropriate. She should stay wherever she is, far away from Harry for her sake.
Having said that, I love Jenny Agutter and you could sense their history just by watching them, because it was all there, and really layered that dynamic so well. I didn't know he made a pass at her, that's funny. i do love that joke he likes to tell in interviews about he and her being good mates, because they built such a rapport on being naked on stage together so much.

In the Top Gear clip, PF says that at a pr thing for a movie they did together (Equus, I assume), after having had a "few drinks," he said to her "Give me one good reason why we shouldn't go back to my hotel room" and she said "I can give you several," stopping him dead in his tracks.

For some reason my brother doesn't have that episode of Top Gear and I was so pissed. That's so funny, I can just see him recounting that story
She was a child actor too. But I know she doesn't like staying on shows or films too long these days, which is perhaps why she left when she did, remembering she wasn't a regular in season 2.

The video of the interview in question is somewhere on this forum. Search "top gear" and you'll probably find it.

You have the video in this thread.
