Who is Charlotte Ritchie? From Fresh Meat to Netflix's hit series You

The newest season of Netflix's hit series You has just dropped on the platform, following Joe over to London after the shocking season three finale.

There's a lot that's different about season four of the series, including the internet's favourite stalker gaining a stalker of his own. A move to a new city also means new characters, including Charlotte Ritchie playing Kate Galvin.

Although Tati Gabrielle has returned in season four, reprising her role as Marienne Bellamy, it's Ritchie who will be playing the fixation for Joe (Penn Badgley), currently masquerading as Jonathan Moore, a university professor in London.

Ritchie has starred in a variety of sitcoms and comedy shows throughout her career. Here are some of her best known roles:

Fresh Meat

Ritchie starred as Oregon in the Channel 4 series, alongside Jack Whitehall, from 2011 to 2016. In the show, her character forms a relationship with one of her university lecturers, although that's sure to have a different outcome to her relationship with Joe in You.

Call the Midwife

Ritchie joined the cast of the heart-warming show in series four, playing Nurse Barbra Gilbert, through to her departure in 2018 in series seven.

Doctor Who

Ritchie had a guest appearance in the New Year's Day episode of the show in 2019. She played Lin, an archaeologist who discovers a piece of a Dalek which takes over her brain to control her.

Feel Good

Ritchie starred opposite Mae Martin, the creator of the show, as Martin's girlfriend George. The pair must overcome a series of obstacles in the rom-com show, including Mae's recovery from her drug addiction and George's reluctance to come out.

Ghosts

Ritchie has played Alison in the BBC sitcom Ghosts since 2019, which follows a couple who inherit a haunted estate. She stars opposite Kielle Smith-Bynoe as her husband Mike as the pair try to navigate their financial difficulties and the squabbling ghosts in their home.
