Speaking on the phone from her home outside LA, actress Orla Brady reveals what first attracted her to the role she plays in the series, opium baron Quinn’s first wife Lydia, sent into exile by her husband in favour of his younger new partner. Executive producer Miles Millar has said the stakes are fully loaded as we head into these final episodes, should audiences brace themselves?"Obviously this is a martial arts series, so of course you can expect to see some spectacular fights and the war to end all wars! But the martial arts genre is also about finding yourself and about personal morality and Lydia is attempting to behave and respond authentically to what’s happening around her.

There are big themes playing out in the closing season; salvation, family, what kind of world to leave for the next generation. Will viewers see them all resolved by the final episode?"It’s more that you’re going to see a moral journey and a chance for some characters to find redemption and happiness, including Lydia," she says, careful not to reveal any spoilers.
