Unless you have been offline all day you will have noticed the BBC announcement that David Bradley will play Bill Hartnell in the Mark Gatiss penned drama on the creation of Doctor Who entitled An Adventure in Space and Time.

Jessica Raine and Brian Cox also appear and it should be noted that Jessica also appears in the upcoming episode known as Shadow of the Hex.

The rumour that he will also play The First Doctor in a multi-Doctor special is entirely unconfirmed!
