Moffat quashes tabloid rumour

Doctor Who writer Steven Moffat, writing on Outpost Gallifrey's discussion forum, has dismissed the rumours circulating in recent days concerning the casting of Northern Irish actor James Nesbitt as the 11th Doctor. Moffat's comments are reproduced below for readers' information.

The James Nesbitt story is a total fabrication. Made up. A fantasy. Just a guy sitting at a desk and just inventing stuff.I wasn't going to say anything, but I'm getting embarrassed for the deeply wonderful Jimmy Nesbitt. So tell everyone please, cos it's getting very silly.Steven Moffat

Thank goodness for that! It's amazing how people still believe the stories that tabloids like the Sun keep inventing.
