Skellern joined the cast of BBC Three’s lesbian drama for the second series, which aired earlier this year.

Speaking exclusively to CultBox, she explained how she felt about Lexy choosing Sam over Tess in Series 2’s finale: “I just wish there were two parallel universes where she could get to do both because I can understand both. It’s that idea, do you go for something fun and safe and lovely or something more difficult.”

Discussing what the future could hold for her character, the Australian actress teased: “I think it’s going to be very awkward for Sam and Lexy because she’s lied to Tess about where she is and that’s not very Lexy; she doesn’t like to lie. So whatever happens, it will be a bit messy.”

A third series of Lip Service has not yet been confirmed, but Skellern expressed a desire to return to the role of Lexy: “It’s something I’m definitely interested in doing, it was a real gift of a character.”
