Jenna Coleman made the most of the sunny weather to wear a cute retro dress to run errands in Primrose Hill.

The Doctor Who star looked tanned in the blue button-down frock worn with black sandals and a textured cross-body bag.

The actress carried her iPad, purse and a chunky knitted cardigan as she stopped by a local shop in the North London area.

Jenna has been busy filming for her role in Doctor Who, in which she returns as the Timelord's companion Clara, though the first episode is said to be rather dark.

Doctor Who - played by Peter Capaldi - will have to decide whether to murder a child in the series opener, that child being a young Davros, his archenemy and creator of the Daleks.

According to series producer Steven Moffat, the hit show is set to run for at least another five years, though it's unconfirmed if Jenna will stay on for that long.

With the show's popularity soaring across the globe, BBC bosses have allegedly been in talks with the talented writer about his plans for the future of the programme.

Moffat told Doctor Who magazine: 'I didn’t think it would last 10 years but with BBC Worldwide trying to get me in a room to talk about their plan for the next five years, it’s going to do a minimum of 15. I mean, it could do 26!'The hit series relaunched back in 2005 after a lengthy hiatus and according to Moffat, ratings are now higher than ever.

He beamed: 'Ten years on, our ratings are pretty much the same. Actually, internationally, bigger. No show does that! You’re meant to go down! Doctor Who just stays. It’s extraordinary!'

Last month, it was announced that Game of Thrones star Maisie Williams will be among the guest stars when the show returns this fall.

Opening up about landing a part on the iconic show, she said: 'I'm so excited to be working on Doctor Who as it’s such a big and important part of British Culture.

'I can’t wait to meet the cast and crew and start filming, especially as we’ll be shooting not too far from my home town.'

Jenna will be seen on the big screen next year in Me Before You, a story about a girl in a small town who forms an unlikely bond with a recently-paralysed man she's taking care of.
