Let's make this birthday one to remember.

49 years old (Born on November 19, 1975)

Happy Birthday, Naoko Mori! Whether you're effortlessly navigating the quirky chaos of "Absolutely Fabulous," saving lives in dramatic style on "Casualty," or battling intergalactic mysteries alongside Captain Jack Harkness as Toshiko Sato in "Torchwood" and facing down aliens with bravery and brilliant wit in your memorable appearances on “Doctor Who,” you've kept us endlessly entertained.

Here's to another fabulous year filled with adventures even more thrilling than detonating rift activity scanners—and may you never need rescuing from an overly enthusiastic Dalek at a birthday party. Stay fearless, clever, funny—just keep being brilliantly timeless you!

Cheers (and sonic screwdrivers raised)!
