She's great! It also will be nice to see her play a happier character as she really has a weighty role on Broadchurch.

So good in Broadchurch. I love Doctor Who. And I have to admit, kinda enjoying the (mostly) fanbois full-on meltdown.

"Whittaker said it felt "incredible" to take on the role, saying: "It feels completely overwhelming, as a feminist, as a woman, as an actor, as a human, as someone who wants to continually push themselves and challenge themselves, and not be boxed in by what you're told you can and can't be."
