You may be looking for his real world counterpart.

Sir Bruce Forsyth was an accomplished British actor and television presenter during the 20th, 21st, 22nd, and 52nd centuries.

Biography[[edit] | [edit source]]

Bruce was a well known celebrity by at least the 1960s. (AUDIO: The Final Act [+]Loading...["The Final Act (audio story)"])

He once won the competition Who's got the biggest chin in comics?, beating, among others, Captain Britain and Desperate Dan. (COMIC: The Totally Stonking, Surprisingly Educational And Utterly Mindboggling Comic Relief Comic [+]Loading...["The Totally Stonking, Surprisingly Educational And Utterly Mindboggling Comic Relief Comic (comic story)"])

Forsyth's life and career continued right across the 21st century and into the start of the 22nd. The Eleventh Doctor accidentally brought Dermot O'Leary to the year 2111, where O'Leary was amazed to find Forsyth still alive and working at the BBC while not looking any older. (TV: Dermot and the Doctor [+]Loading...["Dermot and the Doctor (TV story)"])

By the 52nd century, (TV: The Pandorica Opens [+]Loading...["The Pandorica Opens (TV story)"]) Dorium Maldovar could not resist "a bit of Brucie" upon mentioning he watched Strictly, implying he was still performing. (PROSE: Dorium Maldovar Tells It Like It Is! [+]Loading...["Dorium Maldovar Tells It Like It Is! (short story)"])

References[[edit] | [edit source]]

In 1968, the Palace Theatre had an act by Eric and Ernie in which Forsyth was impersonated. (AUDIO: The Final Act [+]Loading...["The Final Act (audio story)"])

Fragmentary historical records of the year 4000 erroneously stated that Forsyth was the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom in 1977. (AUDIO: The Foe from the Future [+]Loading...["The Foe from the Future (audio story)"])

Forsyth was even famous in alternate and fictional universes; Professor X, fully aware of his status as a fictional character, said that he felt like he was "caught between Basil Brush and Bruce Forsyth." (PROSE: No Future [+]Loading...["No Future (novel)"])

Behind the scenes[[edit] | [edit source]]

  • Dermot and the Doctor's claim that Forsyth was still alive and working by 2111 is a reference to the star's longevity. Of course, inevitably, Forsyth passed away in 2017. Forsyth's life in the 22nd century has never been contradicted in any other source.

Information from invalid sources[[edit] | [edit source]]

Forsyth danced with Michael McIntyre while singing alongside other guests at a Christmas party. (TV: Consider Yourself One Of Us...)
