    class not TW!

    He was the exttant Doctor in Class. In TW: Children of Earth
    (when Tennant was the offstage Doctor) he was an MP whose kid
    got selected for sacrifice to the 5.6.7.8's (or whatever they
    were called - I hated it so much I've never rewatched it).

    Yes. Peter Capaldi played a Home Office bod in Torchwood who's
    name was Frobisher... easy to remember if you're a fan of the
    Sixth Doctor DWM comic strips... or penguins. :-)

    Can't say I've ever read DWM .... but I have heard of "Frobisher"
    somewhere or other. Some British Show.

    Now, it just makes me scratch my head and go on
    with my day only to forget it in about 20 minutes.

    Sounds like most viewer's reaction to a new episode of Doctor Who. :-p
