| Colin Baker and Louise Jameson in Pointless Celebrities (C) BBC |
Over the Christmas period, the BBC have a number of familiar faces popping up from the world of Doctor Who. Check out some of the highlights below.
Pointless Celebrities has a "Pantomime" special and features Sixth Doctor Colin Baker and Leela herself, Louise Jameson (pictured above). Co-hosted by Alexander Armstrong, who starred in The Stolen Earth/Journey's End and The Doctor, The Widow and the Wardrobe, the show will air Dec 24 on BBC One.
Sticking with Alexander Armstrong, the actor is presenting Bruce's Hall of Fame with Alexander Armstrong and includes an appearance from Donna Noble - Catherine Tate. Hall of Fame puts a modern twist on the most famous acts of all time. It’s a chance for today’s stars to pay homage to their heroes and find out what it’s like to perform as their showbiz legends would have done. It also stars Australian film star, singer and dancer Adam Garcia (The Christmas Invasion). The one off special is due to screen early in the New Year.
