Gabby Lane is Britain's most dangerous MI6 field officer. She  refuses to behave like an expendable asset. That refusal is what makes her invaluable - and dangerous.

She operates in the shadows of modern Europe.
She is Agent Blackhawk. She drives a red Aston Martin Vanquish.
And she's coming to your screen.

Gabby is whole, not damaged. This is the most important thing about her. She does not need to be fixed. She does not carry trauma as a defining characteristic. She is not in recovery from something. She simply does the most difficult job in the world, with full awareness of what it costs, and gets on with it.
Her moral landscape is complex rather than simple. She kills when authorised and sleeps afterwards. She uses her sexuality operationally without apology and without drama. She maintains absolute loyalty to the small number of people she trusts and is ruthlessly indifferent to everyone else's opinion of her.
She is dry. Her exchanges with Sir Bernard are built on mutual respect. Her relationship with Hans is the closest thing she has to friendship - warm, honest and built on shared history. Her relationship with Kate / Agent Coniston, a member of the MI6 elite sniper branch, is genuinely between peers.
