Travelling across space and time the Twelfth Doctor (Peter Capaldi) and his companion, Clara Oswald (Jenna Coleman), will come face to face with the mysterious Ms Delphox when they arrive on a strange and puzzling planet."

Tomb Raider series. She is also known for her roles as Zoe Reynolds in
Spooks (2002–2004), Alex Drake in
Ashes to Ashes (2008–2010), and Lady Agnes in the 2010-2012 remake of
Upstairs, Downstairs.
