Doctor Who: 8 April Fools' That You Hate Yourself For Believing

3. Doctor Who: The Musical

According to their report, the production - tentatively named the 'Doctor Whosical' - would star John Barrowman (because who else would it be?) in role as Captain Jack Harkness who would take the audience on a musical journey through the two years of his life that were stolen from his memories by the Time Agency. Written by Russell T Davies, the show would include original songs by the show's composer Murray Gold as well as reworked covers of iconic hits, such as I Just Can't Get You Out Of My Head, performed by Jack and the Face of Boe as a heartfelt duet, and a mesmerising rendition of Don't Stop Fabricatin'... and you can probably guess what that would involve, can't you?
