The actress will be joining singer Pixie Lott and West End star Killian Donnelly on stage for a 10th anniversary concert of the comedy musical.

Langford is best known as Melanie Bush, companion to the Sixth and Seventh Doctors from 1986-87, who also made a recent return to the role for the 60th anniversary specials. But this spring, she’s heading back to the stage to play Barbara Castle in this highly anticipated concert.

Made in Dagenham dramatises the real-life Ford sewing machinists strike of 1968, which aimed for equal pay for women.

The story was turned into a comedy-drama in 2010 starring Sally Hawkins and Bob Hoskins. It later premiered at the West End in 2014 at the Adelphi Theatre to positive reviews.
