BBC bosses are braced for a backlash from religious groups after inviting a famous atheist to guest star. Author Richard Dawkins penned the controversial best-seller The God Delusion which claimed that anyone who believed in a supernatural creator was bonkers.
Now Doctor Who executive boss Russell T Davies, 44, – a well known atheist – is to have Dawkins on the show.
He will make a guest appearance as himself in the two-part finale of the series called Journey’s End where the Doc (David Tennant, 36) faces his deadliest threat from Dalek creator Davros.
