Miley Locke as Rosie Yates
Miley Locke plays Rosie, a nine-year-old with severe learning disabilities.

Miley previously appeared in the TV series The Royals as Sara Alice.
David Tennant as Simon Yates
David Tennant is a Scottish actor familiar to most TV watchers.
His roles in Dr Who, Broadchurch and Casanova have made him one of the UK’s most well-known actors.
Tennant has said he admires how “painfully honest” the show can be.
Jessica Hynes as Emily Yates
Jessica Hynes has been awarded BAFTA TV Award for Best Female Comedy Performance for her role in the show.
Hynes has had a role in the 2007 Doctor Who, in which she played Joan Redfern.
The show also stars Edan Hayhurst as Ben Yates, Rosie’s older brother and Yasmine Akram as Helen, Simon’s friend.
What is There She Goes about?
BBC describes the show as a ‘Comedy drama that shines a light on the day-to-day life of a family looking after their severely learning disabled nine-year-old girl, Rosie.’
