Collecting her award, Claire said: “I was given a role I never thought I would ever get a chance to play, and I met people who I will love for ever and ever.
“And the show goes on, which makes me so proud. So I dedicate this to the next cast, the next generation, and I also dedicate this to [her co-star] Matt Smith.”
Fellow Brit actress Thandie Newton took home the Best Supporting Actress in a Drama Series award for her role in ‘Westworld’.
