Early life
Dickie was born in East Kilbride, Scotland, but she spent part of her childhood in Scotland, Wigtownshire, Galloway, Perthshire, and Ayrshire, Scotland, due to frequent moves by her family. She discovered her passion for acting early in life, which her parents also approved of. She was reluctant to call herself an actress because she came from a working-class family (her father was a fisherman and gardener) in which no family member had been in the arts before, she was reluctant to call herself an actress.
Her enthusiasm for drama helped her to tackle her insecurity that emerged from frequent school shifts and assisted her in adjusting to new people and environments. After leaving school, she went back to college in Kirkcaldy to study for a national diploma in drama. She gained a seat at the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama in 1990 and then stayed in Glasgow.
Career
Dickie started to work in theatre and had the opportunity to perform with some of Scotland's best companies. She finally achieved her breakthrough in 2000, in the BBC Scotland / Raindog series, Tinsel Town.
Through Dickie's performance in her film debut Red Road with her former drama school mate and co-star Tony Curran, she gained more recognition as a serious actress.
In the stage play Aalst, based on the true story of a couple who had killed their children and were sentenced in a high-profile trial, Dickie plays one of the parents. Her motivation to perform this role was her feeling of "responsibility to play people like that and to give them a voice. People that are not necessarily good or nice and have good lives."
Dickie reprised the role of Jackie in Donkeys, a follow-up to Red Road which is directed by Morag McKinnon. She portrayed Mary in the United Kingdom supernatural thriller film Outcast.
Dickie was a swimming trainer in the 2010 television film Dive.
She appears in the HBO television series Game of Thrones, where she plays the role of Lysa Arryn.
