While Cavendish College is a haven for some characters, it leaves others struggling to find their footing, like Otis and Ruby. "From the beginning, she's very much the Ruby that we saw in season three," Bilverstone says.
Her wardrobe, hair, and makeup stay relatively the same, except for the one scene where she desperately tries to fit in with the cool kids by donning an LGBTQ+ pin and rainbow colours, right down to her eyeshadow. "The first time you see her trying to experiment a little bit more is for a very selfish reason," she says. "She thinks if she wears this colourful eyeshadow, she might fit in a bit more, but it's all completely coming from the wrong place."
