Doctor Who star Jenna Coleman has posted a pic on Instagram revealing her look in ITV’s major new drama about the early life of Queen Victoria.

The 8-part series from the makers of BBC One’s Poldark began filming last year.

Created and written by acclaimed novelist Daisy Goodwin, Victoria follows Queen Victoria (Jenna Coleman) from her accession to the throne at the tender age of 18 through to her courtship and marriage to Prince Albert. Victoria went on to rule for 63 years.

The cast also includes Tom Hughes (The Game) as Prince Albert, alongside Eve Myles (Torchwood) as the Queen’s senior dresser, Alex Jennings (The Lady in the Van) as Leopold I, King of Belgium, Peter Firth (Spooks) as the Duke of Cumberland, Catherine Flemming (No Place to Go) as the Duchess of Kent, Rufus Sewell (Parade’s End) as Lord Melbourne, Paul Rhys (Being Human) as Sir John Conroy, Adrian Schiller (Suffragette) as Penge, Nichola McAuliffe (Coronation Street) as the Duchess of Cumberland, Daniela Holtz (Phoenix, Der Verdacht) as Victoria’s governess and confidante Baroness Lehzen, Nell Hudson (Outlander) as Miss Skerrett and Tommy-Lawrence Knight (The Sarah Jane Adventures) as the hall boy, Brodie.

Coleman departed Doctor Who last year after playing companion Clara for three seasons.
