Behind the scenes[]
Whether the blonde woman is supposed to be Jo Grant or an in-universe Katy Manning is ultimately unclear, but since the image is an almost 1:1 of the same infamous photo of Katy Manning posing nude, it is more likely to be the latter. Especially as Jo Grant somehow posing nude next to a real Dalek would be highly unlikely.
Additionally, the blurbs for Iris Wildthyme and the Celestial Omnibus and the charity anthology Bafflement and Devotion: Iris at the Edges describes Iris Wildthyme as looking like the "spitting image" or the "alter-ego" of Katy Manning.
Katy Manning also played "herself" in The Five(ish) Doctors Reboot.
