David Tennant returns as Doctor Who for one night only in Pigs in Space skit
Actor David Tennant made a one-night-only return to his role as Doctor Who for a special Pigs in Space skit during last night’s Muppets Take the O2 show in London.
As originally announced back in February, the Muppets performed their first-ever live European concerts at London’s O2 arena on July 13 and 14. The Muppets’ appearance in England follows their first string of sold-out concerts at California’s Hollywood Bowl back in 2017.
During the July 14 show, David Tennant reprised his role as the Tenth Doctor from the BBC series Doctor Who, interacting with Miss Piggy and Link Hogthrob on the deck of the Swinetrek. You can see a portion of the performance in these Twitter video clips posted by Richard Bennett:
