Doctor Who will meet himself in a one-off special for the BBC's Children In Need, the Sun reports.

Peter Davison, who occupied the Tardis from 1982-4 as Doc number five, will appear in the Stephen Moffat-penned episode on 16 November.

An insider told the Sun: "The Doctor is forever travelling though time so there's no reason why he couldn't catch up with a former incarnation. Peter was top of the writer's list to make a comeback."

Beeb bosses are reportedly "tight-lipped" about the storyline, and there is as yet no official confirmation from the corporation. ®
