Denise Ellisson

Denise Ellisson is the wife of far-right activist group leader Roy Ellisson. In 2015, they were both admitted to the ED after being attacked by Muslim extremists.

In September 2015 during one of their meetings, a Muslim extremist entered and threw a jar of acid on the table, which left those at the meeting injured. Once at the ED, Denise was taken hostage by yet more extremists, who targeted her, knowing that she was linked with the far-right organisation. Preparing to execute her in the meeting room, they were only saved when the specialist police squadron located them and apprehended the terrorists.

Behind the scenes
Lucy Benjamin initially portrayed Denise Ellisson as a one-off guest character in 2015. However, she was later seen in the Spring 2017 trailer, confirming that she was reprising her role over 18 months later.
