There’s a problem with recommending this book to people. Russell T. Davies.

You see, having been a nerd with access to the internet for a while I know he brings out strong reactions in people.

According to the BBC , former Eastenders star Michelle Ryan and all round funny man Lee Evans will guest satr in the first of this year's Doctor Who specials titled the Planet of the Dead.

This has all added fuel to the rumour that Ryan is being prepped to be new Doctor Matt Smith's faithful companion just as Catherine Tate was introduced in the 'Christmas Bride' special.

I thought Bionic Woman was absolute tosh, not helped by Ryan's wooden performance, while her perfomance in the BBC's Merlin was stellar, she's an uncertain quantity for me so I guess we'll just have to wait and see how she does. Lee Evans on the other hand is fantastic in everything he does and I'm really looking forward to seeing his take on a 'Who' character, hopefully he'll put in a better performance than fellow stand-up comedian Peter Kay in the 2006 episode 'Love and Monsters'.
