Charlie Tindall

"'I'm not getting involed. It's not my story to tell, it's yours and I want you to shout it from the rooftops.'"Charlotte "Charlie" Athena Tindall (née Bradshaw) is a high-ranking MI6 agent and has a PhD in biochemistry and astrophysics. She began working at MI6 in Lorelei Stalder's biochemistry section. She is the ex-girlfriend of Sam Lindgren and Elliott Hayes and wife of Alex Tindall. She is the half sister of the now deceased, Adele Bradshaw.

History
Charlie was born in Leeds, UK, to Roger and Josephine Bradshaw. She is the younger half-sister of Adele who committed suicide in Season 2. Although she and her sister are very different in their morals, they both found solace in MI6. At the age of 15, Charlie found happiness with science, as she enjoyed playing with chemicals and seeing what happened. At 18, she went to Oxford University to study biochemistry and astrophysics as a side degree. Graduating, she joined MI6 at 25 and was a biochemist for 13 months before transferring to the Intelligence sector to become a secret agent/intelligence officer.

At university, she was known as one of the smartest yet most hands-on girl, often being thrown the notion she was destined to be a boy. When talking to Alex about her childhood and adolescent years, she says she had a pixie-crop hairstyle, wore shorts and was the geeky girl. Alex says she's come far and is now a glamorous goddess.

Adele's "Assassination"
Season 1 opens with Adele Bradshaw's murder/assassination by presumably Stefan Rosenheim. In actual fact, MI6 has been played, as Adele is alive and well and faked it in order to deflect.
