Glenister to return to Doctor Who

TELEVISION: Robert Glenister is to make a return to Doctor Who after appearing in the show more than three decades ago.

The Spooks and Hustle actor, 59, first appeared in the BBC series in 1984 when he was 24.

Glenister will return for the forthcoming 12th series in a new role.

He said: “I first appeared in Doctor Who in The Caves Of Androzani at the tender age of 24 in 1984.

“Thirty-five years later I got to be in it again at the not so tender age of nearly 60. How time flies!”
