12 Hit US TV Shows You Never Knew Doctor Who Actors Were In
6. Arrow... Again
Turns out Alex Kingston isn't the only familiar Doctor Who face in Arrow! John Barrowman also stars in the hit US show as the mysterious Malcolm Merlyn, a wealthy businessman who was reinstated as a series regular last year after relishing a recurring role throughout its first two seasons. As one of its leading stars, and with a fourth season on the way, it looks like Arrow will be keeping John busy for the foreseeable but Captain Jack fans needn't worry because he's revealed that he'd drop everything to reprise his iconic role as everybody's favourite omnisexual Earth defender. The Arrow execs would even make it work with his filming schedule, so it's good to know that they've got their priorities in check. So... Series 5 of Torchwood, then!?
