S'porean actor Adrian Pang plays doctor in BBC series Doctor Who's latest episode -- but not that Doctor
Singaporean actor Adrian Pang has a minor role in the latest episode of the long-running BBC science fiction TV series Doctor Who.
Entitled The Story And The Engine, the episode premiered on streaming service Disney+ on May 10. The series stars Ncuti Gatwa as the Doctor and Varada Sethu as his companion Belinda Chandra,
Pang played a doctor in a hospital scene with Sethu who played a nurse. His lines consisted mostly of medical jargon.
In the credits, his character is listed as "Consultant" instead of "Doctor", probably to avoid confusion with the main character, who is "The Doctor".
Stomp has reached out to Pang for more info.
A co-founder of theatre company Pangdemonium with his wife Tracie, Pang is a familiar face on local stage, TV and the big screen. He starred in the 1998 movie Forever Fever and played Lee Kuan Yew in The LKY Musical in 2015 and 2022.
