Doctor Who star Peter Capaldi has said he would like David Bowie and Keith Richards to guest star on the long-running series.
Speaking at a screening of the first two episodes of Doctor Who's ninth season, Capaldi revealed his dream guest stars, "David Bowie, he would be a very good one. Keith Richards - stumbling around the TARDIS, knocking out a few chords."
He explained his choices saying, "The punk explosion started when I was about 18 so I love new wave music and rock and roll."
Doctor Who has played host to many high-profile guests over the years including Simon Pegg, Carey Mulligan, and John Hurt. Game of Thrones star Maisie Williams and Bad Education's Michelle Gomez will make appearances in this run of the series.

Capaldi also revealed that he sought advice from previous Doctors when he took on the role. "It's extraordinary because your life does change in some ways quite dramatically," he said. "I spoke to both David [Tennant] and Matt [Smith] before, and they both said, 'Well you will just become much more visible.' I didn't quite take on board what that meant.
"It means when you go down to the supermarket or the shops or whatever, people shout out at you from cars, and people say hello and come up to you. And at first it was quite scary, because you feel very exposed."

He added that he has gotten used to the extra attention, "What you get is affection. You'd have to be very stony-hearted to not be charmed by how kindly people look upon the Doctor."
