Russell Brand would like to take on the lead role in Doctor Who when David Tennant decides to end his tenure on the cult show.
The comedian, who caused controversy at last week's MTV Video Music Awards with a string of jokes about US president George W. Bush, told The Daily Star that he thinks he would be perfect for the role.
"I'd make a good Doctor Who... I'd camp it up: 'Ohhh, it’s bigger in here than it is on the outside - and I’m not talking about the Tardis'," he said, adding that he would "get through a lot of assistants".
Meanwhile, Tennant is said to be interested in portraying The Doctor on the big screen.
