Let's make this birthday one to remember.

62 years old (Born on August 20, 1962)

Happy birthday to the amazing Sophie Aldred—brilliant as Ace, bold companion who never hesitated to swing a baseball bat at intergalactic villains! From fighting angry Daleks to navigating exploding Nitro-9, you've shown us all how companions can truly steal the show.

Beyond TARDIS adventures, your iconic voice has brought animation favorites like Dennis & Gnasher and Bob the Builder vividly alive for countless viewers. Whether boldly battling cybernetic baddies or cheerfully chatting with cartoon characters, you're always ace—pun absolutely intended. Here’s hoping your birthday is filled with fewer Daleks and more cake. After all, explosives are overrated at parties!
