Doctor Who star Ncuti Gatwa recently had an unforgettable encounter with his waxwork doppelganger at Madame Tussauds in London.
The Scottish actor, known for his role as the Fifteenth Doctor in the hit TV show, was captured meeting his lifelike statue, revealing a mix of shock and amusement at the striking resemblance.
In the footage, the 31-year-old Gatwa can be seen giggling and examining the wax figure closely.
"Oh God. It's the teeth. The teeth are so accurate," he exclaimed, highlighting the detailed craftsmanship that went into creating his wax counterpart.
Gatwa's waxwork will be open to the public starting this Friday, offering fans a unique opportunity to get up close and personal with the iconic Time Lord.
Before achieving international fame, Ncuti Gatwa had significant ties to Dundee, where he began his acting career.
A graduate of the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, Gatwa's early work with Dundee Rep Theatre helped hone the skills that would later catapult him to stardom.
His time in Dundee is remembered fondly by local theatre enthusiasts, who watched his talent blossom on their stages, having appeared in several plays from The BfG to Victoria.
Gatwa's journey from the theatres of Dundee to the screens of millions as Doctor Who underscores his remarkable talent and dedication to his craft.
For those eager to see the waxwork, Madame Tussauds London promises an experience as memorable as Gatwa's own reaction.
