Anjli Mohindra & Laura Fraser Cast in Doctor Who

The BBC has announced that Anjli Mohindra and Laura Fraser will appear in seperate episodes of the upcoming season of Doctor Who. Mohindra previously starred as Rani Chandra on spin-off series The Sarah Jane Adventures, although she will be playing a different character this time around. She commented,

As a huge fan of the last series, it’s a bit of a dream come true getting to work opposite Jodie, Mandip, Tosin and of course after all these years, to work with Bradley again! There’s something undeniably special about Jodie’s Doctor, and to be bringing some terror to the joint was rather fun indeed.

Fraser said,

I love this episode and couldn’t resist playing such an intense character. I watched Doctor Who every week as a child, so it was a massive thrill to be asked to take part in such an iconic show.
