Top Gear with Christopher Eccleston

by Elisa

Well, we’ve seen Billie Piper do her lap on Top Gear, and David Tennant as well. John Barrowman hasn’t done it yet. Though, considering the fact that he seems to be everywhere, how long can it be? Now, it’s Christopher Eccleston’s turn. Did you know that he first got his license fourteen months before he did this? Wow. Good thing they didn’t need him to drive Bessie or anything for Doctor Who. We also learn that Mr. Eccleston is a runner. No wonder they hired him to play the Doctor. He really can run for his life.

Enjoy!

    Thank you for this. I had been having a miserable day and am entirely cheered up.

  2. The Vig Says:

    Hey alright another person who only drives automatic.

    I think he did really well

  3. Heather C Says:

    Ha! I’m 32, and don’t have my license yet. But I can always say the Doctor didn’t have his, either!

  4. Elisa Says:

    You’re welcome, Gillian. :D

    The Vig, I can’t drive a manual car either.

    Heather C, my hubby didn’t get his license until he was 32. Obviously, Mr. Eccleston was a wee bit older. Thanks for stopping by!
