Downton Abbeys Joanne Froggatt on playing a serial killer in Dark Angel. Joanne Froggatt is trading in her maids uniform for a poisonous teapot. The actress, who captured hearts as kindly ladies maid Anna on Downton Abbey, is shedding her sweet image and going dark and brunette for her latest role. Froggatt takes on the life of Mary Ann Cotton, the true story of Britains first female serial killer, in the new Masterpiece series Dark Angel, premiering Sunday at 9 p. ET on PBS it aired in Britain on ITV last fall. Directed by Brian Percival Downton Abbey and written by Gwyneth Hughes The Girls, the two hour mini series, based on a book by criminologist David Wilson, dramatizes the story of the notorious Victorian poisoner. Using arsenic and an unsuspecting teapot as her murder weapons of choice, Cotton killed somewhere between 1. Jack the Ripper. Beginning with her first husband, Cotton collects life insurance on her intended victims and sinks further into a web of murder and lies as she strives to use her dark secret to build a better life for herself. EW spoke with Froggatt, who talked about switching gears to play a murderess, what attracts her to period pieces, and the psychology of female serial killers. ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY This is a huge departure for Downton fans who are used to seeing you as the kind hearted Anna. Was that intentional when you were choosing to do it or something that particularly drew you to the role JOANNE FROGGATT People kept saying to me when we were finishing off the last series of Downton, they just kept saying, What do you want to do next And I kept jokingly saying, Oh, I dont know, something completely different like playing a murderer or something. And then lo and behold, the script for Dark Angel just sort of landed on my door, and I was like, Oh, well, here it is. Heres what Ive been saying I wanted to do and its here. So I sort of had to put my money where my mouth was. I just thought Gwyneth Hughes had done such a fantastic job with it.

It was such a page turner. Its quite a difficult feat to have a protagonist in a story that does such terrible things, and the trick is, Why do do we want to watch her And why do we want to know what happens to her It threw up a lot of questions whether she wouldve behaved that way if she was born in our times and she had the luxury of birth control and education and a career, or was she just a psychopath and would she have always done those terrible thingsAnother way this was different for you from Downton was you got to play a character who was a real person. How, if at all, did that change your approach to and preparation for the role And were there things you discovered that maybe werent foregrounded in the script but you wanted to be sure to include in your characterization I love true stories thats a real passion of mine. I really like playing real people or just real, true stories because theyre often more unbelievable than fiction actually. I think if somebody had wrote Mary Anns story as a piece of fiction, wed all go, Really No, I dont think she wouldve done all that in such a short space of time. But she did. In fact, theres stuff we didnt include in the show because we didnt have enough time.

Theres often more research at hand. But you also have, depending on who the person is, you have some artistic license. If its somebody who is very famous, then obviously you have to do what people will be expecting, which is the characteristics and the accent and the voice of somebody that they know and love, which is a different sort of challenge. Somebody like Mary Ann shes not famous, not even in England. We know what area in England she was from, but we dont know exactly how she spoke or how she seemed as a person. So its quite nice to have that freedom, but at the same time have a lot of research to go on as well. So I did a lot of research on her and then a lot of research on psychopaths in general and serial killers in general, like the differences between male and female serial killers, and just tried to build up a picture and a character that worked for our story. What are some of the major differences you found between male and female serial killers Theres an overwhelmingly larger number of male serial killers than there are female serial killers. There are very few females in comparison. But the general differences are that male serial killers usually murder for sexual gratification, and they usually prefer very visceral methods of murder, very messy, very gory. Women usually kill for social or financial gain. They choose very neat and tidy methods like poisoning or overdoses or smothering, and that sort of was an interesting comparison that the women are tidier than the men even in serial killer world. Mary Ann very much fitted into that mold. She murdered for social and financial gain, and she chose neat and tidy methods. So, that was quite fascinating, why that would be in itself. And also, female serial killers dont usually start murdering until theyre in their 3. Mary Ann completely fits into that because she murdered her first husband when she was in her early 3. I think she was 3. But shed been married to him for 1. So its like, what happens at that age Its an interesting concept to wonder why is that Why do they wait Is it brewing away all that time Its fascinating subject matter. You have a nice little treat for Downton fans in here you get to work with Thomas Howes William Mason, the footman, on seasons 1 and 2 again. What was it like reconnecting with him on set and having the chance to work together againOh, it was great. Thomas is so lovely. Brian Percival directed Dark Angel  he was our first director on Downton so he set up Downton. Brian called me and went, What do you think about Thomas Howes Do you think its going to be too Downton y And I was like, Oh my god, no, hed be the perfect George. Hes like, Thats what I think too. And it was brilliant, it was lovely to work with Thomas again. Hes just so much fun. And hes brilliant in it as well. So, it was great, it was lovely. Id worked with Jonas Armstrong before, who plays Mary Anns main love interest Joe, and Id obviously worked with Thomas before, so its nice to have a few people that youve already got that relationship with. It means you have a shortcut when you get on set. Justin SleeWorld Productions and MASTERPIECEOne thing that really stood out to me was that no matter how evil Mary Ann got, I always felt empathy for her in her situation. Shes horrible, but we see her motives and psychology throughout. Good, that was what we were hoping for. In your approach to her, did you feel you came to understand every time she did something I felt for her when I read the script, so Gwyneth definitely had that in her script, and then, it was my job to come and make more of that. Because I read the script, and Im thinking, God, why am I rooting for this woman thats doing terrible things Thats what was interesting about it for me. As a viewer, there needs to be something in there that you are trying to understand or that you want to understand. It doesnt mean you have to agree with the way a persons behaving, but you have to want to know more about them to watch the show. Its that tricky balance of, how do we elevate that for the screen and make her a watchable person Brian and I did a week of rehearsal, and we did an intensive week of really getting to the bottom of who she was and who she is in our story and wanting her to be four dimensional and not wanting her to be this muahaha evil character. The first half of the story, you do feel sorry for her because shes doing nothing wrong and the world seems against her and life is against her and the time shes living in is against her.
