Jodie Whittaker has become one of Britain's most beloved television stars thanks to her roles on and more. But this month, she's gracing our screens in the gritty BBC crime drama, Time, as a prison inmate named Orla.
Jodie is just one of the stars making up a brilliant cast. Also appearing in are, actress Bella Ramsey, Tamara Lawrence and Siobhan Finneran.

Here's more about their very private family life…

It's clear the family have decided to remain dedicated to keeping their personal life away from the spotlight, and fans were equal parts shocked and overjoyed when the Doctor Who star made an appearance at the 2022 Brit Awards debuting a baby bump. The actress welcomed her second child later that year, but the gender and name have been kept private from public knowledge.
What has Jodie Whittaker said about her family?
Jodie has revealed the reasons why she prefers to keep her family life away from the limelight. She previously told the Mirror: "He's from Tucson and I'm from Huddersfield. But I don't divulge stuff about him, because I don't think he'd appreciate it when he's not here to speak for himself. We do get comments like, 'Where the hell did you two meet?' We're like an international couple."
But, Jodie has opened up about some finer details on their 2008 wedding which took place in the States. "We had a big wedding in Arizona - very attention-seeking, big dress, big guest-list kind of wedding. It was obviously in my top five days…" she told the Independent in 2011.
"I felt really young when I got married at just 26, especially living and working somewhere as fast-paced as London - where you can't even plan for the next week, let alone commit to something for the rest of your life. But I'm a good wife, though I think I'm a bit rubbish at home comforts."
