Current “Who” powers that be Steven Moffat and Caroline Skinner will executive produce with Mark Gatiss, who is also tasked with writing the script.
The 90-minute BBC2 special An Adventure In Space And Time will look at the genesis of Doctor Who – which first aired on the BBC on November 23, 1963 – and the personalities involved. This isn’t the first time Bradley, who played the malevolent Argus Filch in the Potter flicks has appeared on Doctor Who, last year he starred opposite the current Time Lord Matt Smith in Dinosaurs on a Spaceship, playing the evil humanoid, ’Solomon’.
David said: “I’m absolutely thrilled. William Hartnell was one of the finest character actors of our time and, as a fan, I want to make sure that I do him justice.”
Filming on “Space and Time” will begin in February for a premiere later this year, which not coincidentally marks the 50th anniversary of “Who.” Terry McDonough (“Breaking Bad”) will direct.
New episodes of “Doctor Who” return to BBC America on March 30.
