Nicola Daniels

Nicola Daniels is one of the main characters in the television series The A Word. She is portrayed by actress Vinette Robinson.

Biography
Nicola married Eddie Scott and they lived together in London, where she had a placement as a GP-in-training. However, the couple went through a rough patch when Nicola cheated on Eddie with another man; this, along with the failure of Eddie's computing business, made them decide to return to the Lake District to be close to Eddie's family.

In the Lake District, Nicola stared working at the local surgery, being demoted to Practice Nurse. Given her work, she is able to discern that Joe has communication issues that need to be looked at, and this leads to his autism diagnosis; she also uses her knowledge to help the family, even if her relationship with Alison is not the best. She is also a friend to Rebecca when she starts feeling unheard.

Despite their attempts to recover their relationship, Nicola and Eddie ultimately go their separate ways, with Nicola returning to London on her own.

Personality
Nicola is professional, driven and at times completely tactless, which is shown when she is the first to point out Joe's problems with communication. Although her blunt demeanour causes a rift between her and Alison, her knowledge due to working in the field of medicine is important given Joe's diagnosis.
