| JANE (played by Gina Bellman) Jane was Steve's "unflushable" ex-girlfriend. Self-obsessed, oblivious to the feelings of others, and incredibly manipulative, Jane is interested only in gratifying her own sense of self-worth. Given that, she is starting to mature and realize that a puppy can only be a boyfriend substitute for so long. So, she is on the hunt for a boyfriend, and she ends up bumping into Oliver, again and again. Writer Steven Moffat explains JANE: "Jane's a fairly needy, lonely character mostly concerned about her age and the fact she hasn't got a boyfriend. Desperately seeking attention, Jane constantly makes things up, telling more than just little white lies. She lives a fantasy life, and but she doesn't live up to any of the fantasies she creates. Instead, she's a woman who'd really rather prefer to be married - perhaps to someone like Steve - but pretends to be okay with the single life."
