Gentleman Jack returns this Sunday evening for its long-awaited second season. Suranne Jones once again takes the lead as Anne Lister for the BBC One hit period drama.
She's a favourite actress of many TV fans and has won high praise for her roles over the years - including as Gemma Foster in Doctor Foster and Rachel Bailey in the detective series Scott and Bailey. The award-winning star, from Oldham, first shot to fame after appearing as Karen McDonald in Coronation Street from 2000.
While Suranne has been on our screens for more than two decades, you may not know much about her life away from the cameras. The 43-year-old is from Chadderton and was educated at Cardinal Langley High School and as a teen became a member of the Oldham Theatre Workshop.
