Edgar Wright has admitted that he would be keen to work on an episode of Doctor Who.
The Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World director told DS that he had been a fan of the BBC sci-fi drama when he was a child.
"I was a huge Doctor Who nerd as a kid, to the point where I dressed up as Peter Davison's Doctor," he admitted. "The last time I saw Steven [Moffat], he said 'Any time you want to do a Doctor Who, just shout'."
Wright added that he had previously been approached to direct an episode of the show in 2005.
"I got offered to direct one of them when Russell T Davies was doing it, during the Christopher Eccleston series, and I wasn't really available to do it," he explained.
