After her husband Pete died in a tragic car accident that may or may not have saved the entire human race, Jackie Tyler soldiered on as a single mother to Rose. 

When a mysterious man called the Doctor came into their lives, Jackie was initially sceptical, but she eventually warmed to him, even joining him on a few of his adventures. Sadly, she was never allowed to drive the TARDIS. 

Jackie was one of the most relatable characters in the show. Everyone knew a Jackie in real life, for better or worse. This was down to the work of Camille Coduri, who excelled as the gossip-loving mum.

You probably haven't heard her name a whole lot over the last 20 years, but Coduri has popped up absolutely everywhere, from British period drama Lark Rise to Candleford in 2008, to crime-comedy series Death in Paradise in 2022.

She's also returned to the Whoniverse in audio form, both as an actor, and as the narrator on several Ninth Doctor audio books. See, she does like him really.
