Tomorrow on Sunday January 14 at 8:30pm the ABC will be showing a modern day adaptation of Much Ado About Nothing which features the following Who stars Sarah Parish, Billie Piper, Martin Jarvis and Nina Sosanya.
In the case for Billie and Nina this was their work together prior to Fear Her. This means that in Fear Her, Nina had a double reunion as she had previously been David Tennant's lover in Casanova.
Also the following Sunday January 21, the ABC will show Taming of the Shrew featuring Love and Monsters guest star Shirley Henderson. |

Ha, and yet the character appeared to be ditzier than Rose. Then again, I only saw a bit of it, so maybe she actually was smarter. |

Martin Jarvis would have been okay if he played Dr.who, he look's like Pertwee,
`ironic how martin was also, in a program called,

I didn't know he was there until you mentioned it. This means that Billie was reunited with two people from Much Ado About Nothing in the 2006 season of Doctor Who.
Saw Taming of the Shrewd with Shirley Henderson last night and oh my she was so good as the lead character. |

It seems like there is a Who actor in every one of these. An odd cooincidence since they were made before new Who. |

| A funny thing about Shirley being in Taming of the Shrew is that her husband was played by Rufus Sewell. The two had previously played husband and wife in Charles II: The Power and the Passion in which Sewell was Charles II and Shirley was the queen consort Catherine of Braganza. |

You know the surnames with 'SON' in them,
That comes from the skandinavian background...
Henderson, `Son of Hender, It should be "Hender_Daughter" since the female has the name!
Well that's Bastardization for you!! |
