Dr. Who wants Florence Welch (+ the Machine) on the show

Doctor Who star Matt Smith says he wants Florence and the Machine's Florence Welch to have a cameo role on the show.

Matt was talking ahead of the launch of the interactive Doctor Who Live show. The tour started at London's Wembley Arena but will hit nine other major cities in the UK.

The sixth series of Doctor Who will open with a two-parter set in the US.

Production starts in Cardiff this month with Matt Smith and Karen Gillan.

"I would like Florence to come and do a Doctor Who. I think she has an essence of an actress".

Celebrity wish list

Matt also revealed there were more celebrities he'd like to see on the programme.

"Eric Cantona, Vincent Cassell, would be number one actually. Helen Mirren would be great. Rowan Atkinson, I'd love to be in Doctor Who. I think he'd be wonderful. I think he's just great. i think he's a fantastic actor."

But would Florence be a friend or foe of the Doctor's?

"Well, who knows. She could be a baddie, she could be a goodie. But I think it will be interesting for her to tread the boards as it were."

As for there being a second red head on set, the first being the Dr's assistant, Karen Gillan, would that be a problem for the Doctor?

"No. There's always room for two fiery reds. And no one can ever replace Miss Gillan."

Series six has been split into two blocks, with the first airing on BBC One in spring 2011 and the second block showing in autumn 2011.
