Australian six-parter One Night, starring Jodie Whittaker, first came out on Paramount in 2023. Now it’s getting an airing on ITV, and promises viewers some remarkable twists and turns.
2023 was the same year the second series of Time landed on BBC One. Whittaker starred alongside Tamara Lawrence and Bella Ramsey as an inmate at Carlingford prison.
The Broadchurch actress previously learned during an episode of Who Do You Think You Are? that her family history was markedly less “beige” than she had expected.
Here’s what we know about the latest developments in that family history of hers!

Jodie Whittaker married Belizean-American actor Christian Contreras in 2008
Born Jodie Auckland Whittaker in Skelmanthorpe, West Yorkshire in June of 1982, Jodie’s acting career has reached remarkable heights over the last decade.
But she has managed to remain grounded through it all. This might be because she has surrounded herself with long-term friendships – she calls them “lifers”.
Or it might have something to do with the fact that she has been happily married for the best part of two decades.
Jodie met her husband, Belizean-American actor Christian Contreras, at drama school. They tied the knot on the last day of 2008, when Jodie was 26, an age she once described as “really young” for doing that type of thing.
“We had a big wedding in Arizona,” she told the Independent in 2011. “Very attention-seeking, big dress, big guestlist kind of wedding. It was obviously in my top five days.”
They have two children together – two girls, aged 10 and three. Christian has had roles in Zero Dark Thirty (2012), TV miniseries Halo: Nightfall (2014) and sci-fi series Foundation (2021).
