Lucy Punch has played the character of Amanda in MOTHERLAND since the first series in 2017. Amanda is the archetypal Sweaty Betty wearing, Kombucha swigging, condescending look-giving queen bee, and was the leader of the Alpha mums. Amanda is a persistent social climber and cares deeply about what people think of her – she finally has her name in lights in Amandaland, which is where she belongs! Post her divorce, she has downsized to South Harlesden, or as the Estate Agent calls it SoHa. Amanda’s trying to remain positive and that obliviousness gives her a thick skin that, in Lucy Punch’s hands, comes close to the appealing trait of resilience.
