The 36-year-old actress admits her first taste of playing the Thirteenth Doctor in the hit sci-fi series was "amazing" - and when she first saw the redesigned fictional time machine for series 11, alongside executive producer Matt Stevens and showrunner Chris Chibnall, she was "surprisingly emotional".
Speaking to Radio Times magazine, she said: "Just walking into it the first time was amazing; it was just me, Matt Stevens and Chris Chibnall.
"After I stepped in, I immediately had to go off and have a little cry. I had a real moment. It was surprisingly emotional."
The 'Broadchurch' star admitted her favourite feature of the latest TARDIS is a Custard Cream biscuit dispenser - created by the show's production designer Arwel Jones.
She said: "My favourite part is the pedal I can push and a Custard Cream falls out! It's an Arwel Jones special."
Jodie isn't the only one who enjoyed the new feature, and while fans were impressed with the steampunk interior and new control panels - they were most amazed by the new biscuit delivery system.
One fan on twitter wrote: "HER LITTLE FACE WHEN SHE REALISES THE TARDIS HAS A CUSTARD CREAM DISPENSER AND SHE CAN EAT THEM WHENEVER SHE WANTS. I LOVE HER SO MUCH. S O M U C H. #doctorwho" (sic)
Another said: "Loving the new look for the TARDIS and I desperately want a custard cream dispenser for myself #DoctorWho". (sic)
Jodie's co-stars were also fond of the updated TARDIS' novel new features, and Tosin Cole, who plays companion Ryan Sinclair, revealed that when he saw the new time machine he "wanted to try everything".
He said: "I felt like a little kid again, walking into the TARDIS for the first time, I wanted to try everything: 'what does this do? What does that do?' "
