Twilight Star: Make me Dr. Who

TWILIGHT actor Peter Facinelli said he'd love to star as Doctor Who to complete his trilogy of recent doctor roles.

The actor, who is married to 90210 star Jennie Garth, told TV Biz that he's been eager to clap eyes on the popular BBC One show since British fans raved about it at a conference for cult film Twilight.

And Peter, who played Jimmy in Six Feet Under, said he'd love to play the Timelord if the opportunity arose - especially if it was in a film of the show.

Peter said: "I wish we had Doctor Who in America. Everyone in UK was raving about it when I came over for the conference. I’d love to watch it. Or even star as the Doctor in a film. I could even get a long stripy scarf!"

The 35-year-old actor also said he was looking forward to playing scatterbrained Dr Cooper in new US show Nurse Jackie but reckons his Twilight alter-ego Carlisle Cullen would be mortified by Dr Cooper's slapdash medical skills.

Peter said: "Dr Cooper in Nurse Jackie is completely different from Dr Carlisle as Cooper is always on the edge. You’d be pretty scared if he were you doctor. One day he could cure you by removing your tumour and then next he could take your ear off.

"He’s pretty neurotic and his mind isn’t on the operation. Carlyle is much more of a rock and much more focussed on his job and would think Cooper is a bumbling mess."

Peter's film Twilight is out on DVD & Blu-ray now and he starts filming the sequel to Twilight, New Moon this week.
