In an unprecedented move, *ten* stars of Doctor Who have united – to send a special message to thank NHS staff and other frontline workers around the country.
Tom Baker, Peter Davison, Colin Baker, Sylvester McCoy, Paul McGann, David Tennant, Matt Smith, Peter Capaldi, Jodie Whittaker and Jo Martin - series 12's Fugitive Doctor - have all taken part.
It will be broadcast during The Big Night In, taking place on BBC One this Thursday from 7pm, and will air just prior to the weekly Clap For Carers at 8pm.
According to the BBC, The Big Night In - which is being hosted by Lenny Henry, Matt Baker, Zoe Ball and Paddy McGuinness - will "celebrate the acts of kindness, humour and the spirit of hope and resilience that is keeping the nation going during the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic".
It sees Comic Relief and Children in Need come together for the first time to raise funds for those on the frontline fighting Covid-19, as well as for unsung heroes going the extra mile to support their communities.
