Tonight's The Night...for Doctor Who

John Barrowman has been hosting a six-part talent series called Tonight's The Night, a show allowing talented people to fulfill their wish of performing in some way on stage, and for the last three weeks, has run a talent contest within the show, attempting to find a brand new unique Doctor Who monster. Now, the search is over, and tonight (23rd May) is truly the night for the winner (who will be revealed in the show) to shine. The winner will star in a 5-10 minute mini-episode of Doctor Who, set in the TARDIS and starring David Tennant as the Tenth Doctor and John Barrowman as Captain Jack Harkness. Since Jack isn't currently travelling with the Doctor, it's reasonable to assume the "monster" will find a way of getting them together on the time ship.

Captain Jack last appeared in the Whoniverse in Who episode Journey's End, where he teamed up with several of the Doctor's Series 1-4 companions to defeat Davros and his armada of Daleks. He was last seen walking away from the Doctor, with Mickey Smith and Martha Jones, who he suggested "having something else to do than UNIT". Jack will appear in this scene sometime after 7.20pm, when the show is set to start, and then next month in his own spin-off with the last remaining members of Torchwood Three, Gwen Cooper and Ianto Jones, in Torchwood: Children Of Earth. Will you be watching the episode?
