Early life and education

Plowman was born in New Zealand to British parents. She attended Samuel Marsden Collegiate School, Wellington, between 1982 and 1989, and then the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art and the Lecoq School in Paris.[1]

She played consultant anaesthetist Annalese Carson in Holby City and Sarah Gardner/Osiris in Stargate SG-1. In 2003 she played Melinda MacLean, wife of British communist spy Donald Maclean, and mistress of spy Kim Philby (played by her husband Toby Stephens), in the TV mini-series Cambridge Spies.

She played Diana Goddard in the Doctor Who story "Dalek" in 2005. Plowman also played the role of "C" in a revival of Edward Albee's play, Three Tall Women, in 2006, at the Oxford Playhouse.

Plowman and Stephens performed together as Sibyl and Elyot in Jonathan Kent's revival of Private Lives for the 2012 Chichester Festival,[2] reprised at the Gielgud Theatre in 2013.[3][4]

From 2016 to 2017, she played chamber maid Mrs Hudson in the series Black Sails, which also starred Toby Stephens.
