Katya is a recurring character in TNT's Snowpiercer. She is portrayed by Yvetta Fisher.
History
Katya is a elderly woman who knew Wilford for a long time (she only spoke Russian). She was a neighbor in Sheffield and he was like a nephew to her. She would take him to the park and a chapel. He loved the chapel and would light a red candle in the glass window. On Snowpiercer she had a couchette in Third Class with vintage Wilford items, with her grandson Elan. She would ask Elan to light a candle every day, as a vigil until Wilford's return.
Throughout The Series
In Our Answer for Everything, Osweiller takes Till to see Katya, a dealer in antiques aboard Snowpiercer. She shows Katya the "W" button, and Katya tells her that the button comes from a jacket; with this her grandson, Elan, explains that Katya and Wilford were neighbours, therefore are extremely close. Till questions the trade of a jacket with the buttons on for a fur hat, and Elan describes the woman Katya traded with as being tall and a member of First, which was later revealed to be Eugenia.
