Writing about the last role, Ben Rawson-Jones reported that "Blake's 7 fans were...pleased to see their beloved Cally pop up in the film as a random solicitor....Chappell's most notable post-Cally role in science fiction was in the direct-to-video Doctor Who spinoff Shakedown: Return of the Sontarans in 1995. Parts in The Bill, Boon, Spooks and New Tricks have ensured a regular stream of work, in addition to plenty of stage performances."
