Described as a "high stakes" watch, Counsels "follows the lives of a group of twenty-something lawyers in Glasgow in the crucial moment when a few years out of university their careers finally become serious", as per its synopsis.
Known for her role as Missy in the long-running sci-fi series, Gomez had a recurring role in Doctor Who from seasons 8 to 10, having also helmed her own titular Doctor Who audio stories.
The main cast of Counsels revolves around the "sometimes complex and messy lives" of the lawyers at the centre of it, with the stars including Brandon Grace (My Lady Jane) as Jamie, Ro Kumar (Traces) as Bav, Eilidh Park (Wind of Change) as Nadine, George Prentice (The Pendragon Cycle) as Alasdair, Alyth Ross (Last Light) as Katie and Rebecca Bell (Outlander: Blood of My Blood) as Karina.
The official BBC synopsis for the series reads: "Working across the legal landscape, whether as public prosecutors, slick representatives of glossier commercial interests or the shabby and good-hearted last resort of those with nothing left to lose, each one of them is out to win.
On the announcement of both the cast and the filming kick-off in Glasgow, series co-creator and co-writer Bryan Elsley said: “I am delighted to be leading with Gillian McCormack on Counsels. We look forward to introducing a galaxy of Scottish acting, writing and directing talent to our audience. Set entirely in Glasgow, we hope to bring the city vividly to life and fill it with arresting stories and characters.”
