Heads up Jenna Coleman fans, BBC First will be unveiling Victoria for us in October.

The ITV series on the young queen has just premiered in the UK this week.

The former Doctor Who star is joined by Rufus Sewell and Tom Hughes in the 8 part drama written by Daisy Goodwin.

A landmark account of the life of one of history’s greatest monarchs, major new drama series Victoria stars an ensemble cast of award-winning talent, including Jenna Coleman (Doctor Who) and Rufus Sewell (The Illusionist).

Created and written by acclaimed novelist Daisy Goodwin, this lavish costume drama draws on real-life events and the Queen’s own exhaustive diaries to paint a vivid portrait of her transformation from an impulsive eighteen-year- old to her years as a wife, mother and head of a global empire.

A saga of interlocking circles, stretching from the upper echelons of the royal court to the below-stairs staff, this is a story of passionate affairs, power struggles and unrequited love, at the centre of which stands the new Queen – a strong, complex and wilful woman who must, somehow, become an enduring icon.

Sundays at 8.30pm from October 16 on BBC First.
