    OH! Wasn’t he the principal of that school where the faculty were aliens or monsters of some kind?

    I bet he’s such a nice guy in real life he’s just cursed with lifelong villain face

    Roy Kent has also made an appearance, as has Doctor Sharon.

    Brett Goldstein was in Jodie Whittaker-era Who and Sarah Niles was in one of the most iconic Tennant-era episodes where she’s one of the interfaces in the library where we first encounter River Song.

      I have watched Silence in the Library dozens of times and never made the connection. I watched the episode recently and squealed when I realised.

        It’s such a repository of British acting talent - so many familiar faces pop up. I reckon the likelihood of some of the boys in the team showing up in classic Who roles like the 2IC on a space station is pretty high into the future.

        I could see Hannah Waddingham doing a fantastic turn as an antagonist either as a one-off or across a season - I’m quite surprised she hasn’t popped up already!

      I honestly agree with you, irritates me when people can’t seperate the character from the actor

        I also agree with that! But I commented because OP originally had “Rupert Manning” in the title.
