As per People, the Australian actress complimented the show's creator Peter Morgan’s ability to bring about the perfect end of the series. She told the outlet, "I think it respected its own cycle in a way."
The MaXXXine actress continued, "I think there was a sense from the writing from Peter as well, that it understood its own end in a way."
She added, "He did an amazing job wrapping up such an enormous journey. I don’t really like the word journey, but it was a big journey for people to go on. When you commit to watching six seasons of a show, you need it to end properly."
