Foxes to appear on Doctor Who

Foxes has filmed a cameo for Doctor Who.

The singer will make her acting debut in the cult BBC show as well as perform a song.

She revealed the news this morning (May 29) on Nick Grimshaw's Radio 1 Breakfast Show.

Speaking about the role, Foxes 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!"

Lead writer Steven Moffat meanwhile commented: "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 eight series of Doctor Who, which will see Peter Capaldi take on the famous role, will air in the UK from August.
