Catherine Tate has landed her next TV role – with the former Doctor Who star set to join the cast of US comedy series Going Dutch.
The series will star American comic Denis Leary (Rescue Me) as a loudmouth US Army Colonel who is punished for a foul tirade by being decamped to the least important army base in the world, in the Netherlands, where he is charged with reinstalling military discipline and professionalism.
According to Deadline, Tate is in line for a recurring role as Katja Vanderhoff, who is described as "a smart, attractive Dutch woman with a PhD in intersectional feminism", who is both head of the city’s Chamber of Commerce and the local brothel owner.
Alongside her casting, veteran actor Joe Morton has also been confirmed as part of the cast, playing the Colonel’s long-standing nemesis General Davidson, who has risen above him in the military ranks.
