Jenna Coleman (born 27 April 1986) — initially credited in Doctor Who as Jenna-Louise Coleman — played companion Clara Oswald, beginning with 2012's Asylum of the Daleks.
Prior to landing the role on Doctor Who, Coleman was perhaps best known for portraying Jasmine Thomas in Emmerdale and had also appeared in Waterloo Road as Lindsay James, the Marvel feature film Captain America: The First Avenger as Connie and the 2012 miniseries Titanic as Annie Desmond.
Coleman was born in Blackpool, Lancashire. Incidentally, Lancashire is also the home county of her character, the modern Clara Oswald.
In 2012, Coleman also introduced the prequel, The Great Detective, and the trailer for The Snowmen, for their broadcast during Children in Need.
Jenna-Louise Coleman first appeared on Doctor Who in TV: Asylum of the Daleks, the only episode she shared with Matt Smith's former co-stars, Karen Gillan and Arthur Darvill. Coleman's character, Oswin, died at the end of the episode. She later returned as a temporary companion in the Christmas special and her character, this time named Clara, died again. Coleman then joined as a full-time companion in TV: The Bells of Saint John, once again playing a woman called Clara who was a third incarnation of Clara Oswin Oswald.
In June 2013, Coleman announced that she was shortening her professional name to Jenna Coleman, and will be credited thus beginning with the 50th anniversary special.[1] (She does not actually receive screen credit for the minisode TV: Clara and the TARDIS, which was released after the announcement.)
