‘Doctor Who’ Star Ncuti Gatwa Given Is Coming to This Year’s Eurovision Song Contest ib Big Role

The iconic science fiction series, “Doctor Who,” remains a stalwart of contemporary sci-fi, maintaining an adoring global fanbase even amidst its fluctuations in quality.

In a departure from our usual coverage of cross-overs, let’s delve into something fresh and unique – just like the Monty Python team might say about their unconventional approach.

Specifically, Ncuti Gatwa, who portrays the current Doctor, is set to make an appearance at this year’s Eurovision Song Contest. His role will involve announcing the votes of the British jury as they come in during the competition.

Although Gatwa isn’t the initial “Doctor Who” cast member to be on the show, he’s the first one who has taken on the role of The Doctor. At present, it remains undetermined if he’ll portray The Doctor or himself, but having Gatwa on board will definitely bring joy to many fans.

For the event in question, you’re likely aware, we’ve shared news that an episode of Doctor Who themed around Eurovision is due this season. This episode will introduce us to the Cosmic Song Contest, a competition similar to ESC, but with a universal scope instead.

In that episode, Graham Norton is set to make a guest appearance, which likely makes Gatwa’s appearance at the Eurovision Song Contest a delightful exchange or reciprocal agreement – a gesture I believe will please fans of both programs.

On May 17th, the unique broadcast is scheduled to run concurrently with the Eurovision Grand Final, an event taking place in Basel, Switzerland.
