India Longford is a fictional character from the British Channel 4 soap opera ''Hollyoaks'', played by Beth Kingston. She made her first on-screen appearance on 21 September 2009 and was introduced by series producer Lucy Allan as a new student at Hollyoaks Community College. Kingston was given the role after she entered and won an online competition run by ''Hollyoaks Desperately Seeking''. In November 2010, it was announced that India would be murdered. India was murdered by Silas Blissett on 23 December 2010. India returned in 2011 when Texas portrayed her in a reconstruction of her death. India again returned in 2012. Kingston has stated that she was happy to leave the show before being typecast in the role. India has been portrayed as a "posh bird" and is narrow-minded, having a tendency to "rub people up the wrong way". She is also described as sensible and "strait-laced". Many of India's early storylines revolved around her wanting to "fit in" among her fellow students, sleeping with Archie Carpenter, feuding with Hayley Ramsey and a "will-they-won't-they" relationship with Josh Ashworth. The relationship led to jealousy between Josh and his brother Rhys resulting in India fighting for her life after a car crash caused by Josh. India's later storylines involved the arrival of her sister Texas, sleeping with Jamil Fadel and a brief relationship with homosexual Brendan Brady who used her to hide his sexuality. Her most prominent and final storyline saw her online dating and despite being vigilant to begin with, agreeing to meet with a man named Cameron, which led to her being murdered by Silas Blissett, who had been posing as him. India returned on 10 August 2011 when Silas saw Texas as India. On 5 and 10 July 2012, India again returned, appearing in her sisters nightmares. ==Character creation and casting== In June 2009, it was announced that the ''Hollyoaks'' producers were looking for a female actress to play the role of India Longford. The search was organised by ''Hollyoaks'' production house Lime Pictures through ''Hollyoaks Desperately Seeking'', in the hope to discover the show's "next Roxanne McKee" who successfully gained the role of Louise Summers after winning competition ''Hollyoaks: On The Pull'' in 2004.〔 Females aged between 18 to 30 were invited to download an audition script and upload a video of themselves performing the script to the official ''Hollyoaks Desperately Seeking'' website.〔 Speaking of the project, ''Hollyoaks'' series producer Lucy Allan said: "We are very excited about opening the audition process to a wider audience and hope to find that special raw talent that we found in Roxanne and Marcus () (who portrayed Ben Davies) in the ‘''On The Pull''’ series."〔 In June 2009, the competition closed and ''Desperately Seeking'' announced that they had received 1679 votes. Three finalists were picked; Sophie Louise Craig, Brooke India Burfitt-Dons and Beth Kingston. On 4 July 2009, Sonny Flood (who portrayed Josh Ashworth) appeared on ''T4'' live to announce that Kingston had been cast in the role of India. She began filming her scenes on 10 July. Kingston said "I was really excited and elated to get down to the last 25, never mind the last six, then three then go on to win. I've been bonding with the girls all week coordinating what we were going to wear on T4! I wasn't nervous up until the point we walked into the T4 studio and when they shouted my name out, I couldn't believe it. I was in pure shock. I can't wait to tell my family. When I was told that I was starting filming with ''Hollyoaks'' on Monday, I realised how quick a turnaround it is working on a soap! I'm just elated."〔
