David Walliams (born 20th August 1971) provided the voices of Quincy Flowers and Ned Cotton in Phantasmagoria. He had been seriously considered for the roles of the Ninth Doctor and the Tenth Doctor, and was the leading choice for the Eleventh Doctor but schedueling conflicts with season 2 of Little Britain USA made it impossible for him to accept the role.
In 1999, Walliams appeared alongside friend Mark Gatiss in three sketches that parodied Doctor Who: The Web of Caves, The Kidnappers (which also featured Peter Davison), and The Pitch of Fear (where he played Sydney Newman).
Walliams is a fan of the entire franchise, or as he puts it "enthusiast". He has written many references to the franchise in his show Little Britain (which also stars Matt Lucas, Anthony Head, Paul Putner and Tom Baker), including him plaing a character named Matthew Waterhouse.[1]
Walliams declined to comment on what his Doctor would have been like, but he said that, should he have been cast, he would have committed to a minimum of 3 seasons.
