When asked whether she would like to see a spin-off show that focuses on Shruti, she joked: "Yeah, 100 per cent, just so I can be the lead.
"Yeah, that would be cool! We should follow Adam, then follow Shruti, then follow Tracy (Michele Austin) and then Miss Houghton (Ashley McGuire). I think Miss Houghton's would be the most viewed series."
What is This is Going to Hurt about?
Based on Adam Kay's best-selling memoir of the same name, the series stars Ben Whishaw as a fictionalised version of the comedy writer during his time working as a junior doctor on an obstetrics and gynaecology unit in an NHS hospital.
