Thanks to Doctor Who and the T.A.R.D.I.S. on Facebook for confirming this news. They report:
- An official source from the BBC said:
“Chris met with Steven Moffat a couple of times to talk about Steven’s plans for the Doctor Who 50th anniversary episode. After careful thought, Chris decided not to be in the episode. He wishes the team all the best.”
So sadly this means Christopher Eccleston will not be in 50th Anniversary Special.
