The TV show ends when Von retires from All Saints.

Charlotte came from a family background where the expectations in regard to education were very low but, inspired to exceed, Charlotte dreamed of becoming a doctor since she was a teenager and, after succeeding, made her way thought medical school achieving good results. Charlotte is very compassionate and caring in what she does and she always does her best. She is kind and thoughtful to all that are around her and is a wonderful doctor to the patients whom she encounters. She is very dedicated to her job and what she does, although she can become a little hot-headed when it comes to things she is passionate about. Charlotte was introduced into the show in its fifth season, here she was taking emergency and night shifts. Her first major event was when she was treating a suspected Ebola outbreak with Dr. Mitch Stevens. Charlotte's sister, Sophia Beaumont, had a brief stint as a nurse in the E.D. with them clashing a little. Charlotte has a little boy, Zack, whom she loves very dearly. She does well at juggling her hectic working life with her family life, her son spending much time in the hospital crèche. Zack was fathered by Spencer, who has disappeared to work in Africa. Prior to this relationship, she was involved in a couple of lesbian affairs, and wanted desperately to have a baby. This nearly came true after a one-night stand with colleague Jack Quade, but the baby was lost in a miscarriage after an accident outside the hospital.

Charlotte is respected by her colleagues, particularly by Frank with whom she holds a very tight friendship. Charlotte was previously married to Dr. Vincent Hughes when she was younger, this ended when she revealed to him that she was homosexual, although they remained best of friends.

In May 2008 it appeared that a relationship may be unfolding between Charlotte and lesbian nurse Rhiannon, but instead Rhiannon confided her sexuality to Charlotte and also made a pass at her. When Charlotte knocked her back, Rhiannon chose instead to make a sexual harassment complaint against Charlotte, even though she was the actual instigator. Charlotte tried unsuccessfully to deal with the situation via the internal mechanisms of the hospital, but eventually decided to sue Rhiannon for defamation, at which point Rhiannon backed down and admitted that she had lied about the sexual harassment. Charlotte then discovered Rhiannon in her bathroom, who had slashed her wrists in an attempt to take her life.
