Charlie Brooker has slammed the BBC for ruining the climax of last night's Doctor Who episode.

The critic, who recently praised the sci-fi series on You Have Been Watching, was left reeling after a cartoon version of Graham Norton danced on the screen to promote Over The Rainbow.

He tweeted yesterday: "Why don't the BBC just wipe s**t all over the screen during the final scene of Doctor Who next week? That's a reference to the Over The Rainbow on-screen trail by the way. Loved the ep. Until then."

Brooker, who then watched the reality show, later quipped: "I hope they trail the news with an animated George Alagiah in the final scene of Over The Rainbow."

You Have Been Watching continues next Thursday at 10pm on Channel 4.
