David Bowie to star in Doctor Who?
Published Thursday, Aug 30 2007, 12:52 BST | By Kimberley Dadds
David Bowie is reportedly being lined up to star in a two-part special of Doctor Who as an evil alien.
The singer will allegedly abduct crime writer Agatha Christie for the episode and will clash with David Tennant's character.
TV producers hand picked the star because of his 'other-worldy' looks and are hoping to show the episodes on BBC1 next year.
However, a spokesperson for Bowie denies that there is any truth in the rumours. But insiders have revealed that he would consider a role, provided that he wouldn't have to spend hours in the make-up room.
