Doctor Who actor David Tennant has revealed that he wants to play the villain in the next Bond film.
According to the Mirror, the actor has been approached for a number of jobs since taking the role as the Time Lord.
But he told the newspaper: "I'd like to be a Bond baddie.
"They always have some disability, don't they? I could have one leg and be stroking a chicken saying 'I've infected the world with bird flu'".
Tennant went on, ruling out the chance of playing James Bond himself, saying "I think that job's taken for a while - mind you I said that about Doctor Who."
