In 2014, which would prove to be a busy year for Marsay, she played the role of Lizzie Lancaster in series two of The Bletchley Circle.[3] In September, Faye had two projects debut, the first being BAFTA nominated film, Pride, in which she played the character of Steph alongside distinguished actors, such as Imelda Staunton, Paddy Considine, Bill Nighy, Andrew Scott, and Dominic West, as well as up-and-coming talent Ben Schnetzer, George MacKay, Joe Gilgun, and Freddie Fox. The second was the TV miniseries murder mystery Glue written by Jack Thorne. Faye played the character Janine Riley with a young, talented cast of actors Callum Turner, Yasmin Page, and Billy Howle.
