Now everyone join hands and form a nice orderly circle around Pearl Mackie and protect her because we know how this is gonna go down.
I’ve already seen comments like ‘bbc playing it politically correct’ and ‘oh she’s black and female is she going to be a LESBIAN too?’ (uh…yeah, that would be great?) so yes, please, this.
Reading the script at the audition I thought Bill was wicked. Fantastically written, cool, strong, sharp, a little bit vulnerable with a bit of geekiness thrown in – I can’t wait to bring her to life, and to see how she develops through the series. I always loved stage combat at drama school so I can’t wait to get on set and kick some evil monsters into the next dimension!
