Name:
Lady Margaret Clifford
Title:
Countess of Derby
What family do you have with you on Progress?
My Husband - Sir Henry Stanley, earl of Derby
My Royal cousin - Elizabeth Tudor
My treacherous cousin- Catherine Grey
My sister in law - Anne Stanley, baroness Stourton
My NATURAL sister in law - Ursula Stanley, Lady Salisbury
Who is your chief ally on this Progress?
My husband - he hath as much to gain as I if I do take the Throne of England
Who is your enemy on this Progress?
My cousin, Catherine Grey
Why are you on Progress?
By royal command. However it keeps me surrounded by witnesses that insist on watching my every action. If I were in the country it would be far simpler for someone to make an accusation of treason. For this reason I am content to serve Her Grace.
Why are you at Court?
I am the Queen's first cousin. I serve as her train bearer. This post Her Grace keeps one of her only two blood relatives close at Her heels.

Fact3: 
What ONE thing can YOU (the actor) tell us/show us about your character that you want us to 'see' when we play off of you?:
While Margaret does not care for her husband, she IS a faithful wife. However, having given Henry four sons she is now free to dispense with living with him. This suits him well. She is also next in line for the crown. She considers "that Grey child" will come to no good end as she is, after all, the product of a traitor.
