Trivia Question: Doctor Who and the Apostle Paul
A trivia question for you: which of the ten doctors also played the apostle Paul?
Eric Idle?
ReplyDeleteNo idea, but I know which one played Rasputin.
ReplyDeleteAnthony Hopkins was both Doctor Who and the Apostle Paul.
ReplyDeleteAm I bovvered?
ReplyDeleteJim: I'm impressed that you manage to name someone who played neither! (to my knowledge). That sounds like a wild stab in the dark.
ReplyDeleteDoug: Yes, the same person who played Sherlock Holmes.
James: Hopkins was indeed Paul but he was not one of the ten doctors.
Deirdre: Does this face look bothered?

ReplyDeleteFor what it's worth, there's some Doctor Who fan fiction written by someone named "Saint, Paul".
ReplyDeleteThanks, Stephen. That's funny.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, it was a stab! A gashing lunge really.
