Will Lily Allen be following in Billie Piper's footsteps? And not by acting as a London call girl. But rather, by joining the cast of Doctor Who.

The Sun says there are talks for Lily to join the show.

Apparently Lil is being eyed-up for the role as Doctor Who's assistant, who's currently portrayed by Catherine Tate.

They quote a show source as saying: "Lily is multi-talented. She comes from more of a TV background than a musical one.

"After the chat show we hope she'll take over from Catherine as Doctor Who's assistant.

"We've talked to her and she was excited by the idea."

Wowsers.

For the next series rumours say David Tennant may not be returning to reprise his role as the famed Doctor Who.

The source also told the paper: "John Simm and Rhys Ifans have been linked with the job. Lily would make a very cool couple with either of them."

That she would.

Seeing as Lil recently landed her own chat show too, looks like things in the telly depo are looking rosy for her.

There was a rumour going round at the weekend about John Simm as it was in the NotW. But as it's not on the BBC it's not true - yet. I think they should cast someone not so well known.

John Simm as the Doctor is ludicrious. As for Lily Allen she has a successful music career, and has done well in the US. Is she really going to give that up to become the new assistant?

NO!!!

I wouldn't be able to take Lily seriously thanks to the trailers advertising Katie Brand's Big Ass Show.

I was talking to someone while waiting for the Geoffrey Hughes coffee club who agreed it was Sam Tyler is the Master and she also thought it would be Sam Tyler is the Doctor. She rolled her eyes at even the suggestion.
