Karen Gillan has revealed she was behind the controversial decision to wear short skirts on Doctor Who.
The Hollywood actress, who played Amy Pond in the sci-fi series, said she picked all her outfits.
Bosses were criticised for “shamelessly sexing up” the long-running show and it was even accused of being too sexy for family viewing.
Following her debut on the BBC hit in April 2010, Karen’s appearance was labelled “slutty” by a small section of fans who objected to her being on screen in a policewoman’s outfit with a tiny skirt.
But the 33-year-old has said it was her choice to include short skirts as a staple part of her character’s costume and says, despite the backlash, she has never regretted it.
