The identity of an actor who appeared in the Doctor Who 60th Anniversary teaser which aired on BBC One on 29 April is discovered.

Jamie Hayden, also known as Jamie Cho, was cast in the role of Colonel Chan in a Doctor Who 60th anniversary special which will air in November 2023.

Since he is dressed in UNIT soldier gear and all the scenes in the teaser seem to be from the first special, we will likely see his glowing eyes in the first of the three anniversary specials which the teaser indicates is titled The Star Beast.

He has several writing and directing credits as Jamie Cho and set up an independent production company in 2013.

Hayden joins Ronak Patani, who plays fellow UNIT soldier Major Singh in The Star Beast.

Doctor Who will return in November 2023 with three 60th anniversary specials starring David Tennant as the Fourteenth Doctor and Catherine Tate as companion Donna Noble. In the following festive period, Ncuti Gatwa will star in his first full Doctor Who episode as the Fifteenth Doctor. Doctor Who Series 14 starring Ncuti Gatwa and Millie Gibson will debut in 2024.
