Posted Filed under

Bad Education star Jack Whitehall has revealed that he’s hoping for a guest role in Doctor Who.

Whitehall told Digital Spy: “I’d love to do Doctor Who. I need to corner Steven Moffat.”

The comedian added: “He had Zawe [Ashton from Fresh Meat] and Michelle Gomez [from Bad Education] in the last series – they were both very good in it.”

Ashton played Journey Blue in ‘Into the Dalek’, while Gomez played Missy.

Hinting at the type of character that he’d like to play, Whitehall commented: “I’d like to play a villain. My heroes are people like Jeremy Irons and Alan Rickman. I’d love to do my version of a Rickman villain.”

Doctor Who returns later this month with ‘Last Christmas’.

Season 8 was released on DVD and Blu-ray last week and Season 9 begins filming in January.
