The Living and the Dead is a British supernatural horror television miniseries created by Ashley Pharoah and Matthew Graham. The plot revolves around Nathan Appleby (played by Colin Morgan) and his wife, Charlotte Appleby (played by Charlotte Spencer), whose farm is believed to be at the centre of numerous supernatural occurrences.
Charlotte Spencer has the same first name as the character that she plays in The Living and the Dead.
Charlotte Spencer plays a character named Charlotte Appleby, so the common first name is Charlotte. It may have been difficult because it is a little confusing.
