Doctor Who Star David Tennant Reveals How He Saved Kylie Minogue by Acting as Her Double

Colum Sanson-Regan had an unexpected experience while working as a Doctor Who extra. When David Tennant was unavailable, Colum was chosen because he resembled the doctor. Colum jokingly said that he had saved Kylie Minogue, flown the Tardis, and had Billie Piper express her love for him. Colum had no idea what was happening when he arrived on set, but he was assigned to the doctor's suit and handed a script. He was surprised to find himself working alongside Kylie Minogue, who played a humanoid waitress. Colum had to prevent Kylie from falling off a bridge during a scene with killer robot angels. Amazed by his experience, Colum shared the news with his bandmates, and they couldn't believe it. Producers were impressed with his work and asked him to play the doctor's clone in the fourth series. He had the opportunity to work with Tennant, Piper, John Barrowman, and Catherine Tate, which he called an amazing and surreal experience. Colum enjoyed working near Tennant, praising his professionalism and kindness. Despite his limited availability for more extra work, Colum is excited to watch the show and is grateful for his time on Doctor Who.
