10 MORE Times Doctor Who Appeared In Other TV Shows
10. Staged
The Zoom comedy Staged features a very obvious Doctor Who connection in the shape of the former (and current) Doctor Who star David Tennant in a leading role.
But hey, any time spent talking about DT is time well spent.
An utter gem of pandemic-era TV, the show features Tennant and fellow actor Michael Sheen as fictionalised versions of themselves. Over various Zoom calls, the grumpy thespians attempt to rehearse for an upcoming play, only to massively get on each other's nerves. It's a fantastic show, and one that, inevitably, talks about Doctor Who a lot.
In one argument – moderated by Whoopi Goldberg, of all people – Tennant screams "I'm Doctor Who!", only for Sheen to reply "Not anymore, baby!" Well, after The Power of the Doctor... joke's on him.
Then there's this cool detail from the first series, which only the most dedicated of viewers managed to spot first time round. While Tennant is on the phone in his garden, a miniature TARDIS is visible just behind him, hidden among some trees.
Tennant later confirmed that it was not a real Doctor Who prop stolen from the set, but that it had been built by the step-grandfather of his children for them to play in. Aww.
