  • Barrowman in shock "I'd like nice thing to happen to me" admission

    TV News | Ed Williamson | 25th April 2013

    John Barrowman, miffed to have his Captain Jack character left out of the Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Special, now thinks it would be a splendid idea if Jack and Alex Kingston's River Song had their own show. "I can see John's point," observed one Who fan. "As a sentient creature capable of basic deductive reasoning, I am also in favour of things happening to me that are fun and/or in my long-term financial interests. While this microphone's in front of me, does anyone else reckon it would be a great idea if I were given a year's paid leave from work, ate fudge for breakfast every day and had free access to a string of high-class east European call-girls?"
