Mandip Gill is leaving Doctor Who behind and heading to a very different alternate reality. Yaz, the sparky, all-action companion to Jodie Whittaker's Time Lord, is several dimensions away from her new thriller Curfew, where men are locked down each night, and her character Sophie is no hero.

The 36-year-old stars in the new show that lands on Paramount+ this month alongside Sarah Parish and Mitchell Robertson and says she'd "never read anything like this before". It is set in a Britain that has brought in a curfew on men from 7pm to 7am to protect women, but then a horrific murder committed during the curfew changes everything.

Has this legend of the London restaurant scene lost its cool?

Once upon a time —not so long ago, less than a decade — being a D&D restaurant meant something. Back then, Le Pont de la Tour and Coq d’ Argent were governed by swathes of the most moneyed City regulars; Sartoria offered a hangout on Savile Row as stylish as any of its neighbouring tailors; and Quaglino’s, until recently, was the place mere mortals were most likely to bump into Prince Harry or Mick Jagger.
