Rumours are swirling that Nick Frost will have a guest role in this year’s Doctor Who Christmas special.

Most will know Frost from his comedy roles in Shaun of the Dead and the other two films in the Three Flavours Cornetto trilogy, Hot Fuzz and The World’s End.

Frost has reportedly been spotted in Cardiff with Dan Starkey, who of course plays Strax, indicating a possible return for the Paternoster Gang as well.
