Guest star Mark Sheppard (Warehouse 13, Chuck) has revealed that he hates Doctor Who and wishes it would go away… only kidding, ha ha! I’m such a kidder, I really, really am… Anyway Sheppard unsurprisingly loved filming his role in the Series 6 two-part curtain raiser.

Sheppard twitted to his protected followers (seriously his Twitter page is protected) that he loved both the show and his co-star Matt Smith:

“Doctor Who was definitely a dream job for me. Matt  is my favourite Doctor.”

See, I didn’t make it up.

Sheppard will appear as the fancifully named Canton Everett Delaware III in the USA set 60′s adventure along with regulars Karen Gillan, Arthur Darvil and some bloke called Alex Kingston.

While on procastination on twitter Sheppard also jobbed former employer Steven Moffat for a role in another one of his TV gems Sherlock.

Doctor Who will return this Spring on BBC1 for a change.
