Finney will play a character called Rose, however the BBC did not confirm whether she will debut as a new version of Billie Piper’s fan favourite Rose Tyler. Speaking about joining the cast Finney, who is transgender, said: “If anyone would have told eight-year-old Yasmin that one day she’d be part of this iconic show, I would have never in a million years believed them.
