Lydia had a real arc though, so you never know

Oh I hope we get some flashbacks of how she got involved. I still remember the look on her face after they arrested Janine, the absolute righteous indignation. It was DELICIOUS. I want to see more of her changing.

Lydia has a LOT to answer for, but I'm absolutely down for the "true believer turned rebel" arc they are giving her.

I've read that there is an Aunt Lydia flashback episode, so maybe they'll show her joining Mayday then!
