IS THAT WHO JEN?

Doctor Who star Jenna Coleman looks chic while filming new BBC crime show The Serpent

JENNA Coleman looks super slinky as gets ready to appear in new crime show The Serpent.
The Doctor Who star, 33, looked very chic in a floral shirt and shades combination, as she gets into character for her new role which will air on BBC One later this year, as well as Netflix.

The series will be directed by Tom Shankland from The Missing and produced by Poldark’s Mammoth Screen

Jenna has played a young Queen Victoria in the ITV series since 2016 but won’t return for the next instalment as her character will be recast with an older actress.

The actress will star as the partner and accomplice of French serial killer, Charles Sobhraj, who is currently serving a life sentence in Kathmandu prison, Nepal.

A conman who earned the chilling nicknames The Bikini Killer and The Serpent, Charles Sobhraj gained infamy for his successful escapes from high-security prisons.

Sobhraj’s favourite method was to make his victims ill – using anything from diarrhoea-inducing pills to itching powder – and then he would strangle them, mutilate them with a knife or shoot them. Then he would disfigure their corpses.

Sobhraj is believed to have murdered up to 24 people.

The Serpent is written by Ripper Street’s Richard Warlow and is based on Sobhraj.

The series will be directed by Tom Shankland from The Missing and produced by Poldark’s Mammoth Screen.
