Doctor Who star gets into fine mess on set

BUMBLING Doctor Who star Matt Smith is constantly breaking bits of the set during filming, the show's boss has revealed.

Executive producer Steven Moffatt described the actor as a cross between Indiana Jones and Stan Laurel.

Viewers will see the result of one of his accidents in tonight's edition of the BBC 1 series.

Mr Moffatt said: "There's a nice accidental moment where The Doctor hangs from the strap on the ceiling and it breaks.

"The very first time Matt did it, it was an accident – he wasn't supposed to do that, it's just typical Matt, breaking everything – but the director liked it, so he kept it in. The version we see on screen isn't the real accident, it's him doing it on purpose, but I do think it is very funny."
