Sophie Colquhoun was born on the 12th of September 1989 in Liverpool and, in 2005, she studied at Central St. Martins of the University of the Arts London. At the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts, she studied with 'The Bill' director, Peter Cregeen, and attended the site-specific workshop at Prima del Teatro, along with Charlotte Munksø in Italy.

Here Sophie was the daughter of a white man that wanted to be affiliated with Jamaican culture, he spoke, walked and acted as if he was a Jamaican which was literally hilarious and embarrassing for any daughter. She then had a more substantial role when she played the role of Ava in 'EastEnders' (2011) for 3 episodes. Further appearances followed in 'Switch' (2012), 'Some Girls' (2012) and 'Death in Paradise' (2014) before she was given the role of Cynthia, one of the main characters of Series 1 and 2 of 'Plebs' (2013-14). Cynthia was the naive bombshell searching for an actress career in olden day Rome with co-star Lydia Rose Bewley and starred alongside Tom Rosenthal, Karl Theobald and Ellie Taylor. The series follows three desperate young men from the suburbs as they try to get laid, hold down jobs and climb the social ladder in the big city.
