Eccleston denies 'Doctor Who' exhaustion

Christopher Eccleston is furious with Alan Davies over comments that he quit Doctor Who because he was overworked and exhausted.

Jonathan Creek star Davies claimed earlier this month that the BBC worked Eccleston "into the ground", leading to his decision to quit as the Time Lord after just one series.

"Alan should keep his nose out of my business," Christopher told The Mirror. "I rang his agent and told him he had no right to say what he did."

When asked what projects he is currently working on, Eccleston confessed, "Nothing. Absolutely nothing. I'm out of work."
