While there's technically nothing inaccurate about this sentence, I believe the lack of a "female" qualifier here can be misinterpreted to suggests that she is the first actor or actress of East Asian descent to play such a role. The first East Asian actor to play a lead role in a British TV series was actually [[David Yip]] in [[The Chinese Detective]]. I thought I'd bring this up in talk first as such a change is not likely to be without controversy, but I would suggest that "female actor" would be clearer in this context.

Date of birth
IMDB states 30 Aug 1992. This matches age 17 in December 2009 as stated in BBC press packs.
An anonymous editor recently changed the year to 1990 referring to unspecified "online discrepencies" [sic] but I have reverted 1992 based on the above. – Fayenatic (talk) 09:57, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
