Jenna Coleman

Jenna Coleman is an actress I rate for choosing substance over easy glamour. The Blackpool-born performer broke big as Clara Oswald on Doctor Who, then proved her range carrying Victoria as a young queen with real command, after early years on Emmerdale. She's picked up International Emmy and BAFTA Cymru and Scotland nominations, which tells me the work, not just the profile, is being noticed. That expressive face and steel behind the eyes let her be charming and tough at once. I find she lifts whatever's around her on screen. When she's at the center of a show, the whole thing brightens up.
