Russell Tovey confirms 'Doctor Who' audition: It would've terrified me
Tuesday, May 7, 2013
Russell Tovey has revealed that he auditioned for the lead role in Doctor Who.
The Being Human actor was briefly tipped to replace David Tennant on the BBC sci-fi drama, after appearing in two episodes as the character Midshipman Frame.
The 31-year-old did screen-test for the part of the Eleventh Doctor, according to The Independent, but ultimately lost out to current Who lead Matt Smith.
"It would have terrified me," Tovey is quoted as saying. "I don't know what I would have done with all the attention."
The actor can currently be seen in ITV's new sitcom The Job Lot, which airs on Monday nights at 9.30pm.
