Patrick Stewart as a Time Lord?The Sun says it’s so, with quotes from Stewart and everything, so it’s probably not total bullshit: ACTING legend Patrick Stewart is to make a giant leap across space — from Star Trek to Doctor Who. The pair starred in a production of Hamlet in the summer. Patrick — Captain Jean-Luc Picard in Star Trek — has been offered a role in a two-parter involving the Daleks, set to be screened next year. After having seen Tennant and Stewart together on stage in Hamlet, and I can say only, Woo-hoo! (Thanks to reader Lanna Lee and others for pointing this out to me.) support

I may have done a little helpless flail of joy upon seeing this. OMG. Admittedly it's not seeing them in Hamlet, but this is almost as good!

Yes please!

Stewart's quote is an old one and the other is from a Sun "source", which often translates as "speculation on the spoiler threads of Doctor Who fansites".

Yeah, spoiler (and speculation) on the "Spoilers" thread at the Doctor Who Forum (formerly Outpost Gallifrey) regularly gets reported in the Sun...This news was posted on there last week. Clearly a reporter has an account there.

Well, here's hoping there some truth to it in any case. I would *love* to see this happen!

Ok, I realize this has nothing to do with anything (for that, I'm terribly sorry), but I felt a need to share...

Yay for pictures! Although they do just make me sadder about missing this show. And just to be a complete girl about it, he's beautiful.

Stewart's good but how about Elvira :Mistress of the Dark as a evil Time Lady.
Man, that would be the coolest thing ever.
