"The Woman in Cabin 10" Characters Quiz

Answer: Investigative journalist

Played by Keira Knightley, Laura, called "Lo" by her friends, returns to work traumatised by the murder by drowning of an informer, and is looking for an easy task to regain her equilibrium. She accepts an invitation to join and write about a cruise to a fundraising gala in Norway.

Answer: Billionaire, terminally ill

Anne, the billionaire head of a large new charity aimed at helping people with leukaemia, is herself terminally ill with the disease. On the first night of the cruise, she has a private talk with Laura, showing her intended speech at the gala, which reveals that all her fortune will go to the foundation.

Answer: Head of security

Sigrid (played by Amanda Collin) has the dual role of overall security and personal bodyguard to Anne. She investigates and dismisses Lo's "woman overboard" alarm, but plays a crucial role in the story's climax.

Answer: Billionaire's family doctor

Dr. Mehta (played convincingly by Art Malik) is Anne's doctor. Softly spoken, he joins in the gaslighting of Lo, helping convince the other guests of her hysteria. His role soon develops into something more.

Answer: Photographer

Ben (David Ajala) was Lo's romantic partner until their recent breakup (apparently because of his bad behaviour). Lo finds his attitude confusing, as he wavers between belief in her claims, and dismissal of her wilder allegations. Ultimately he proves himself to be a hero, saving Lo from attack.

Answer: Billionaire's spouse

Richard is Anne's husband, the host for the trip to Norway. He attempts to convince Lo that her assertions of a woman overboard are understandable post-traumatic symptoms after her recent harrowing experience. He and Dr Mehta help convince the other guests of this.

Answer: Ship's Captain

Captain Addis plays a crucial role in the plot, co-operating in the search for the mystery woman, and convincing the guests that everyone is alive and fully accounted for. He takes his orders from Richard, Anne's husband.

Answer: Mystery woman

Lo encounters Carrie when she ducks into Cabin 10 to avoid meeting her former partner, Ben, the photographer on the cruise. Carrie proves to be elusive for most of the voyage. It is not until quite well into the story that we discover how crucial her role is.

Answer: Editor, Velocity magazine

Lonsdale, played by Gugu Mbatha-Raw, is editor and boss at 'Velocity' travel magazine, who feels that the ocean cruise will give Lo a way to keep working while she recovers from her recent trauma.

Answer: Wealthy tech businessman

Lars is a tech magnate, specialising in facial recognition. He has recently done some work for Richard, hence the luxury trip.
