LONDON (Reuters) - Australian pop diva Kylie Minogue will join the cast of British science-fiction TV drama Doctor Who for a special Christmas episode, the BBC said on Tuesday.

Britain's public-funded broadcaster said Minogue, 39, would play a "major lead role" alongside Dr Who actor David Tennant.

The hour-long episode, "Voyage of the Damned," will start filming in Cardiff, Wales, in July.

"It is an incredible thrill to be joining David and the entire Dr Who production for this year's Christmas special," said Minogue.

"Dr Who enjoys a unique history and it is going to be very exciting to be a part of that."

Former television soap opera star Minogue returned to the stage last November with a sell out concert in Sydney after recovering from breast cancer.

Old news over there?

iT IS OLD NEWS, woops.. it is old news, but it's good to have proper confirmed confirmation actually from Kylie. Should be interesting.. and she ought to be good since she started her career acting. Okay, so it was in Neighbours, but it still counts.

I don't see why people are excited, she's hardly known for her acting ability (Street Fighter?) But many cultural icons have passed me by.
