'Doctor Who' actor Jenna Coleman's embarrassing moment has the internet cringing
There are some anecdotes that are just so embarrassing, you can't help but cringe for the people involved.
And cringe we most certainly did when we read Jenna Coleman's most embarrassing moment in an interview with the Guardian.
The Doctor Who actor recounted the time she was buying a sandwich at Leeds train station when a man spoke to her.
"The man said to me: 'Do you want to go for a drink?' I said, 'I am so sorry, I’ve got a boyfriend,'" said Coleman.
Little did she know, however, that the man wasn't actually asking her out. "And he replied, 'No, it’s a meal deal: if you take a sandwich, you can get a drink as well,'" Coleman continued.

The interview had a few other excellent gems, like this response about what she wanted to be when she grew up.
"I told my mum I wanted to be a swan," replied Coleman.
Same, to be honest.

She also said her guiltiest pleasure is that she could spend four hours in a bath. Also, same.
