Davina McCall (born 16 October 1967[1]) provided the voice of the Davinadroid in the Doctor Who television episode Bad Wolf [+]Russell T Davies, Doctor Who series 1 (BBC One, 2005). and a fictionalized version of herself in The Church on Ruby Road [+]Russell T Davies, Doctor Who Christmas Special 2023 (BBC One and Disney+, 2023)..

Career[]

She is best known for hosting Big Brother. In March 2009 she co-hosted the BBC's Red Nose Day appeal for Comic Relief alongside David Tennant.
