Doctor smashes up phonebox shock!
 
 

New Doctor Who assistant Freema Agyeman claims the Time Lord David Tennant has a very bad habit of breaking things on set.

The 28-year-old actress, who's in her first big TV role as trainee doctor Martha Jones on the show, says: "David loves getting up to mischief and he's always breaking things off the TARDIS.

"We'll be in the middle of this dramatic scene and he'll reach to grab a lever or something and it will snap off in his hand."

Freema says the Scottish actor is 'a real pleasure to work with' even though they sometimes disagree about who's to blame when part of the set breaks.

"We did this scene once when he had to throw the sonic screwdriver to me, but I dropped it, and it broke. We then spent ages arguing about whose fault it was," she added.

Freema joins David in the new series of Doctor Who, starting this Saturday on BBC One.
