Simon Pegg
Simon Pegg (born 14th February 1970) voiced Don Chaney in Invaders from Mars and played the Editor in The Long Game. He also narrated the first series of Doctor Who Confidential.
Although well-known in the United Kingdom for his film and TV work, Pegg achieved international attention for his films Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz. In 2009, Pegg will appear in J.J. Abrams' reinvention of the television franchise Star Trek, carrying on from the late James Doohan in the role of Chief Engineer Montgomery Scott. In doing so he will become the latest of only a handful of those who have appeared in an incarnation of both Doctor Who and Star Trek. (Coincidentally, Pegg shares several scenes with another Doctor Who alumnus, Deep Roy, with Roy appearing as Scotty's alien sidekick.)
Pegg also wrote and starred in Spaced, which referenced and parodied many science fiction series, including Doctor Who, when the shop in which Pegg's character works has a door that is decorated to resemble the TARDIS. In a DVD commentary, it is also noted that this has extra significance, in that the stockroom on the other side of the door is notably bigger than the shop floor from which it is seen.
