Singer Foxes has landed a role in ‘Doctor Who’.
The 25-year-old singer – real name Louisa Rose Allen – will make her acting debut in an episode of the upcoming eighth series of the hit BBC sci-fi drama.
The ‘Youth’ songstress will perform a track on the show and appear in a new adventure starring Peter Capaldi as the Twelfth Doctor.
She said: "I can’t believe I’m actually going to be in an episode of ‘Doctor Who’! Especially as it all came about from a chance meeting. I was playing a gig and got chatting to the show’s production team who’d been watching my performance. I was telling them how much I loved ‘Doctor Who’ and next thing they invited me to be on it. I couldn’t think of a better place to make my acting debut than on one of the UK’s most iconic shows!"
Executive producer Steven Moffat added: "We are completely thrilled that the amazingly talented Foxes is joining us on board … well, you’ll see. Let’s just say, the Doctor is finally catching up on his phone calls."
The new series of ‘Doctor Who’ – which also feature guest appearances from Frank Skinner and Keeley Hawes – begins on BBC One in August.
