Former Doctor Who actor David Tennant is set to marry his girlfriend Georgia Moffett – a 26-year-old actress with whom he enjoys spooky, if not extraterrestial, connections.

First, she is the daughter of Peter Davison, the actor who played the BBC’S fifth Time Lord. Second – and this one’s enough to keep Freudian analysts busy for ages - she once played the fruit of Tennant’s intergalactic loins in a 2008 episode called The Doctor’s Daughter.

The couple have confirmed that they plan to get married next New Year’s Day.
 
Davison – who played the Doctor between 1981 and 1984 – told the Daily Mail that Tennant is "a genuinely nice guy - and also a very fine Doctor Who".

Tennant has previously been linked to assistant director Jennie Fava and actress Sophia Myles who played Madame de Pompadour in an episode in 2006. ·
