'Former Emmerdale actress Jenna-Louise Coleman has landed the role of the Time Lord's new companion in Doctor Who, the BBC has confirmed.
Producer Steven Moffat announced the actress will replace Karen Gillan's character Amy Pond when she leaves the show in the next series.
Coleman, 25, has also appeared in Waterloo Road and Julian Fellowes' four part mini-series Titanic.
The star said: "I am beyond excited. I can't wait to get cracking."
Coleman, who will make her first appearance in the Christmas special, added that she is a "huge fan" of the show.
The actress, who is from Blackpool, revealed she auditioned alongside Matt Smith, who plays the 11th Doctor.
Filming for the new series of Doctor Who began in Wales last month "It was fun and I felt like we were in it together."
Smith is set to return as the Time Lord in the new series of Doctor Who, which starts later this year.'

It is my opinion that, if we are going to dedicate a thread, on a political activist website, to a vapid celebrity of no real consequence to the world, then it is imperative that we have pictures!

Our whole family loves Dr. Who, It will be good to see that story line of the last two years with the other girl and her boyfriend come to an end, that was really chaning the historical approach to Dr. Who.
I don’t think this new girl is so hot, she’s just not that pretty in my book, but I don’t care, I love the Dr. Who show ....
