Sorcha Groundsell was a Scottish actress who broke out in the states in 2018 when she began starring on the Netflix science fiction series "The Innocents" (Netflix, 2018- ). Born and raised in Scotland, Groundsell first knew she wanted to be an actor at the age of 9. Her family had just relocated to Glasgow, Scotland, and soon after, Groundsell's parents enrolled her in children's drama classes at the Citizens Theater. Groundsell soon fell in love with acting, and before long was immersing herself in classic Hollywood films like "Casablanca" (1942), as well as various animated Disney classics. In watching those films, she realized that acting was a career she could pursue, and by the age of 15 Groundsell had hired an acting coach to take her fledgling career to the next level. Before long she was being cast in plays throughout Scotland, which allowed her to hone her craft night after night on stage. Then in 2015 Groundsell was cast in a supporting role in the dramatic film "Iona" (2015). The critical success of "Iona," which was also Groundsell's feature film debut, gave Groundsell the leverage she needed to pursue screen-acting full time. Over the next few years she appeared on the shows "In Plain Sight" (USA Network, 2008-2012) and "Clique" (BBC Three, 2017- ).
Soon after her twenty-fifth birthday, Libby Jones returns home from work to find the letter she’s been waiting for her entire life. She rips it open with one driving thought: I am finally going to know who I am. She soon learns not only the identity of her birth parents, but also that she is the sole inheritor of their abandoned mansion on the banks of the Thames in London’s fashionable Chelsea neighborhood, worth millions. Everything in Libby’s life is about to change. But what she can’t possibly know is that others have been waiting for this day as well—and she is on a collision course to meet them. Twenty-five years ago, police were called to 16 Cheyne Walk with reports of a baby crying. When they arrived, they found a healthy ten-month-old happily cooing in her crib in the bedroom. Downstairs in the kitchen lay three dead bodies, all dressed in black, next to a hastily scrawled note. And the four other children reported to live at Cheyne Walk were gone.
