Ex-Eurovision presenter Rylan will be playing a version of himself too

Rylan Clark, who is a self confessed Whovian, will also appear in the episode on Saturday.

He's previously commentated on Eurovision in real life, but will now play himself in the time-travelling series.

Rylan will be one of the hosts of the Interstellar Song Contest.

He said he's delighted to have had a part in the hit series, but wasn't nervous.

"It felt like I should be doing it. The most nervous thing was actually knowing I was in Doctor Who.

"I played myself but also added a bit of Caesar from the Hunger Games for good measure."
