Georgia Moffett (born 25th December 1984) appeared as Jenny, the title character of the Doctor Who story The Doctor's Daughter.
She is the daughter of Peter Davison, who played the Fifth Doctor (1982- 84), and American actress Sandra Dickinson. In 2004 she met with Russell T Davies and the producers to ask to be considered for the role of Rose Tyler, but they decided not to allow her to audition, because she was too young. In 2008 she auditioned for a role in the episode The Unicorn and the Wasp, but Russell T Davies asked her to wait as he felt she would better suit the role of Jenny. She also appeared alongside her father in the Big Finish Productions Doctor Who audio Red Dawn, as Tanya Webster.
Georgia also appeared in The Bill as Sam Nixon's troubled teen daughter Abi, who was featured in a number of major storylines.
Following her Doctor Who screen appearance, she has also done work with BBC Audio recording audio versions of two BBC Tenth Doctor Adventures novels. She recently recorded the voice of Cassie Rice for an animated Doctor Who serial entitled Dreamland, once again opposite David Tennant; Moffett affected an American accent for playing Cassie. In 2010 she is providing more voiceover work for Big Finish's The Lost Stories line.
Other information
She was born just nine months after Colin Baker took on role of the Sixth Doctor, replacing her father as the Doctor. Some years later she would attend the same school as Baker's daughter. Georgia gave birth to her son, Tyler, on 27 March 2002, at the age of 17. She had a relationship with her Where the Heart Is co-star Adam Paul Harvey which ended in 2006. In 2008, she was reported to be dating David Tennant. In January 2011, UK tabloids reported that they were engaged with a wedding planned for 2012, and that she was pregnant. Both Tennant's father and Moffett's father, Peter Davison, confirmed the pregnancy. On 31 March UK newspapers reported that Moffett had given birth to a daughter, named Olive, earlier that week. Neither Tennant nor Moffett, who have never spoken about or confirmed their relationship publicly, have commented.
