The Doctor gets up close and personal with his Christmas companion, Astrid Peth, in the Doctor Who 2007 Christmas special, Voyage Of The Damned, on BBC One. Well, it's Kylie. I'd snog her, and I'm a girl. Who needs Dr Who SlashFic when you've got Russell T Davies on the job? Buy Doctor Who in the USA - or Buy Doctor Who in the UK  The Doctor, played by David Tennant, wastes no time in getting acquainted with the tonsils of Kylie Minogue's Astrid in the drama which goes out at 6.50pm on Christmas Day. Kylie will star as Astrid, a waitress on The Titanic, alongside David Tennant in a story that follows on directly from the ending of series three where viewers witnessed The Titanic crash through the Tardis walls.

Voyage Of The Damned will also feature Coronation Street star, Debbie Chazen, who also starred in BBC Three comedy series The Smoking Room; Clive Rowe; Russell Tovey from the film The History Boys; Jimmy Vee, who has previously been in Doctor Who as the Moxx of Balhoon; and George Costigan who starred in BBC drama The Long Firm and the acclaimed film Rita Sue And Bob Too.
Kylie Minogue told SFcrowsnest.com about her time lord snogfest, "It is an incredible thrill to be joining David and the entire Doctor Who production for this year's Christmas special. Doctor Who enjoys a unique history and it is going to be very exciting to be a part of that."

However, celebrity fans in attendance included Jo Whiley, John Simm, Tamsin Greig, Nick Cave and Richard Curtis.
