The BBC drama returns next month, with SexEducationstar Ncuti taking the TARDIS as the fifteenth Timelord.
Award-winning Russell T. Davies penned the latest release following a Christmas special featuring Bonnie Langford and CorriestarMillie Gibson.
Still Game‘s Sanjeev added: “I metNcuti Gatwa, he’s a jaw-droppingly beautiful human being and an amazing actor.
“I don’t know him personally but he’s always lovely to me when I see him.
“I’ve got a picture of Ncuti and Peter Capaldi and I tweeted it saying ‘current Doctor Who, past Doctor Who and future Doctor Who’.
“I’ve said this on multiple occasions, Doctor Who is the only doctor on television that isn’t Asian.”
And it’s not the first time the Scots funnyman has taken on a medic role after portraying a doc in Anthony Horowitz’s mystery series Magpie Murders.
Elsewhere the Scots actor revealed he’s set to star as a doctor alongside Martin Compston in the second series of supernatural thriller The Rig.
It comes after Sanjeev’s Still Game co-star stunned fans after making a shock appearance in the new Deadpool & Wolverine movie.
Eagle-eyed viewers were left dumbfounded after the Scots comedy legend, 54, appeared alongside Hollywood giants Ryan Reynolds, 47, and Hugh Jackman, 55, in a trailer for the blockbuster.
One fan joked: “[That] wasn’t on my bingo card today.”
