So, I'm sure you all have noticed that many of the main character's actors in Doctor Who have been used in previous episodes of Doctor Who, or other British movies and TV shows. I normally wouldn't add an entire thread for this, but I recently discovered an actor that I missed the first time around.

So clearly, the most obvious one is David Tennant, who also played Barty Crouch Jr. In Harry Potter. A couple other ones that amazed me were Freema Agymen (Martha) made an appearance in the end of season 2 and was basically the reason the 'ghosts' turned to Cyberman. Another is that Karen Gillian (Amy) appears in Fires of Pompeii as one of the priestesses. Another, which the Doctor actually made note of in Journey's End, Gwyneth, the girl from the Charles Dickens episode is the same actress as Gwen Cooper from Torchwood. The one that amazed me is that the scientist that inspects the pig alien that crashed into big ben is Tosh, from Torchwood. A couple others are Ursula (Love and Monsters DW)= Moaning Myrtle (Harry Potter); John Lumic (Age of Steel DW)= Barty Crouch Sr (Harry Potter); The vampire woman (Vampires in Venice)=Narcissa Malfoy (Harry Potter); Cassandra (New Earth DW)= Madame Hooch (Harry Potter); The Dream Lord (Amy's Choice DW)= Dobby (Harry Potter)

In sure there are more of these that I've missed, and I would love to hear if you guys know of them. They make me really happy.
