Freema Featured on Doctor Who Trading Card

Last month a new Doctor Who collectible card game (CCG) with a magazine companion, called Doctor Who: Battles In Time was launched by GE Fabbri, after being tested in select parts of the UK earlier in the year.

We were quite pleased to discover that Freema Agyeman appears on one of the trading cards!

Currently the set only deals with series one and two, so it’s for her character “Adeola Oshodi” and not as “Martha Jones”, but we hope to see more cards with her produced next year after the new series starts. This card is #242 out of 275.
