There's lots of brilliant female tv characters, historical figures, celebs etc. Whose you're favourite and why?

Caroline Herschel's story resonates with me for some reason.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caroline_Herschel

Something about how little was expected or desired of her, but she kept plugging at things and learning, and excelled. She was short and scarred and disabled but damn she found some cool stuff. There are periods in her life when she was just like "i don't want to be here or do this" but she just kept making the best of it.

Holy shit she's amazing! She had a really rough start, but she persevered and achieved what other people can only dream of. Never heard of her thanks for sharing
