From BROADCHURCH to DOCTOR WHO. Jonathan Bailey and other series 8 guest stars announced

After announcing the casting of Samuel Anderson as a new Doctor Who companion, the BBC have also confirmed several new guest stars for Peter Capaldi's debut season.


First up is the brilliant Jonathan Bailey who will appear in episode 5. He played Olly Stevens in Broadchurch last year, you may have also seen him in Groove High and Leonardo. I also remember him from many years back when he was just a wee nipper (!) and appeared in both Baddiel's Syndrome and the Freddie Highmore movie version of Five Children and It.


Also joining Jonathan Bailey in episode 5 is Pippa Bennett-Warner. Previous credits include The Smoke and Death In Paradise. She has worked extensively in the theater with her first break coming as one of the original cast members of Disney’s The Lion King, when she played young Nala. 


Robert Goodman will be appearing in episode 4 this year, which will mark the fifth time we've seen him on Doctor Who, although all previous appearances were in the classic series. He played minor parts in Nightmare Of Eden, Full Cirlcle, Arc Of Infinity and various episodes of Season 23, The Trial of a Time Lord. Goodman's other roles include Game Of Thrones, Ripper Street and Gangs Of New York.

More Doctor Who news as we get it.
