Former Doctor Matt Smith has killed all hope of a Sherlock and Doctor Who crossover and told a panel of fans there’s just ‘no room’ for him on the BBC One show.

“Listen, there’s no room for me on Sherlock!” he told a panel of fans at the Wizard World Con. “They’ve got Benedict and Martin, that’s quite enough peculiar Englishmen for that show. There’s no room for another.”

Previously Sherlock's Steven Moffat hinted that Smith could make an appearance in the mystery drama.

Moffat is the executive producer on two of the BBC's biggest shows - Sherlock and Doctor Who - and he didn't yet ruled out bringing in former Doctor Matt in for a guest appearance on Sherlock.

"If there was a perfect part for Smith, there's no rule against it," he told Zap2It.com.

"We wouldn't want it to be stunt casting, because stunt casting doesn't work, so it would have to be just because he was overwhelming right for it."

Moffat added that while he would 'jump at the chance' to work with Matt again, but he doesn't think Sherlock is the right place.
