The actors for Steven Moffat’s new show have been announced. This is his first television series since completing ‘Douglas is Cancelled’ for ITV.
Channel 4’s upcoming series, Number 10, which was revealed earlier in the year, will center around a fictional Prime Minister and their team working in Downing Street.
Deadline has confirmed the cast for the upcoming series: Rafe Spall (known for Black Mirror) will star as the Prime Minister, Katherine Kelly (In Flight) will play his Chief of Staff, and Jenna Coleman (The Sandman) will play her deputy.
This project reunites Moffat and Coleman, who previously worked together on Doctor Who. Coleman played Clara Oswald while Moffat was showrunner, appearing alongside both Matt Smith and Peter Capaldi as the Doctor.
Spall praised the script for ‘Number 10,’ calling it a brilliant piece of writing on par with the work of its creator, Steven Moffat. He expressed his excitement about playing the Prime Minister, describing the show as humorous, realistic, and engaging.
The show will also star Akshay Khanna (as Murderbot), Abigail Lawrie (from No Escape), Laura Haddock (known for What It Feels Like For A Girl), Jing Lusi (of Red Eye), Pierro Niel-Mee (Andor), Rick Warden (Happy Valley), Joe Wilkinson (The Celebrity Traitors), Robyn Cara (Trying), and Richard Rankin (Rebus).
The show also stars Rhiannon Clements, Patrick Baladi (known from Line of Duty), Shaun Prendergast (Industry), Harry Baxendale (The Radleys), Alex Macqueen (Seven Dials), Sid Sagar (Slow Horses), Sam Alexander (Sister Boniface Mysteries), and Emer Kenny (Karen Pirie).

The series follows a surprising house with a secret: the Prime Minister lives in the attic, there’s a coffee shop in the basement, and the rest of the house is filled with love, trouble, and disappointment. It’s a unique home – the only one ever built with both mice and a nuclear weapon – where even a bad hangover could accidentally cause an international conflict.
The story won’t focus on specific governments or political parties. While the setting will involve realistic issues, the details of who’s in charge aren’t important – when things go truly wrong, those distinctions become irrelevant.
“It’s just the most remarkable address I can think of.”
