The BBC has confirmed that Kylie Minogue will be joining the Doctor Who cast in a major lead role in an hour-long Christmas special to be broadcast in December 2007 on BBC One.
Kylie will be joining David Tennant for the episode, Voyage Of The Damned, which starts filming in July in Cardiff.
The production team has also confirmed that the storyline will follow on directly from the ending of series three where viewers witnessed The Titanic crash through the Tardis walls…
The episode has been written by Doctor Who's Executive Producer and Head Writer Russell T Davies.
He says: "We are delighted and excited to announce that Kylie Minogue will be joining the Doctor.
"Doctor Who Christmas specials are always a joy and we feel very confident that this will be the most ambitious and best Christmas episode yet."
Kylie says: "It is an incredible thrill to be joining David and the entire Doctor Who production for this year's Christmas special.
"Doctor Who enjoys a unique history and it is going to be very exciting to be a part of that."
Full details are currently under wraps with more information to be announced shortly.
The fourth series of Doctor Who will be back in Spring 2008.

Freema, who gained rave notices for her portrayal of Martha Jones, is also set to join the cast of BBC Three's Torchwood where she will continue to play the character in three new episodes before returning to Doctor Who in the middle of the fourth series.
Doctor Who Executive Producer and Head Writer Russell T Davies said: "Series three has gained outstanding reviews and Freema has been a huge part of that success, gaining rave notices for her portrayal of Martha.
"Now we are taking the character of Martha into brand new territory with a starring role in Torchwood."
Freema said: "I can't wait to start filming on Torchwood and the new series of Doctor Who. It's a huge new challenge for me and I'm delighted Russell has decided to expand the character of Martha Jones."
The announcement leaves a vacant space in the Tardis and a new companion for The Doctor, who will join the new series for the entire 13-week run, will be announced shortly.
The fourth series of Doctor Who goes into production this month.

Toonzone has the first image from the WB's upcoming "Spectacular Spider-Man" 'toon series.

Able to alliterate an array of hyperbolic prose at the drop of a hat: It's the Stan Lee action figure.
"We feel it's long overdue that Stan Lee be immortalized as an action figure, much like the dozens of marvelous characters that he has created for years and years," said Eric Nyman, Hasbro's vice president of marketing. "And it couldn't be more fitting than to create him as a `Marvel Legends' figure."
The limited-edition, $14.99 toy will be introduced next month in San Diego at Comic-Con International, the annual comic-book convention.

The original title logo from the Beatles' Rubber Soul album is up for auction.
The trademark stretchy font, which has been credited with launching a swarm of imitations, was created in 1965 by Charles Front, a young advertising executive who accepted the job on the side from his friend, the photographer Bob Freeman.

Corgi International CEO Michael Cookson commented, "Corgi as a company has had a long association with the Beatles having produced the original Yellow Submarine die cast in the 1960’s and it was a priority for the company to re-initiate a program with Apple Corps/Suba Films for an innovative range of product, that people will once again enjoy purchasing. With the 40th Anniversary of Sgt Peppers, it was a perfect time for the deal to have been agreed, and we are truly excited to be partners again.’’

Moonstone Comics is seeking an artist to draw an upcoming Captain Action series. From the press release:
Moonstone Books recently announced the upcoming Captain Action comic book
series with famed writer Fabian Nicieza at the helm. The series will begin
with two six-page teaser tales run in the back of existing Moonstone titles
such as *The Phantom* and *Kolchak, The Night Stalker*. However, before that
can happen, the publisher needs to plug the right artist into the project.
"We're looking for the perfect artist to team with Fabian," states Editor in
Chief Joe Gentile. "We're not interested in seeing superheroes, but we are
looking for a professional artist who can handle the slick James Bond type
stuff as well as the old school stuff."
If art is your thing and working with Fabian Nicieza on Captain Action is
your dream gig, then please submit two consecutive pages of non-colored
sequential art. Please no pin ups or sketches. In addition, please do not
email links to artwork or website/portfolios. Please email the page files
directly to us at contact_us@moonstonebooks.com. If penciling is your thing,
please only send pencilled pages. If you ink as well as pencil, please email
us two completed pages of pencils and two completed pages of inks, please
make sure they are the same two pages. The files need to be in jpeg format,
no larger than comic size, and no more than 300DPI.

Mattel plans toys based on both the upcoming "Speed Racer" and Batman films. Details:
SPEED RACER: With Speed's Mach 5 leading the way, the leading die-cast vehicle brand, Hot Wheels, will feature a wide assortment of die-cast vehicles, race sets and track sets based on the film. Tyco, the leading remote control vehicle brand, will put kids behind the wheel of the Mach 5 with R/C vehicles and racing sets. Radica, Mattel's newly acquired games and electronics division, will put the action in the hands of kids through products that let them take the wheel, literally. Additionally, a line of Mattel games and puzzles will capture the film's action through board games, puzzles and a special-edition UNO card game.
BATMAN: For their film-inspired product lines, Mattel will utilize the multiple elements introduced in The Dark Knight. A new Batsuit, a new vehicle in the form of the Batpod and multiple key action scenes that set the stage for inspired play. Mattel's action figure line will feature Batman and the new Batsuit. Tyco R/C vehicles bring to life the speed and action of the Batmobile and the new Batpod. An entire line of action play items will allow boys to role-play being The Dark Knight. Additionally, Mattel will release a line of games and puzzles that will capture the film action through board games, puzzles and a special-edition UNO card game.
