Merlin's Alexander Vlahos really wants that guest role in Doctor Who
The Versailles actor has tweeted his bid for the Tardis

Alexander Vlahos may be playing Prince Philippe in royal drama Versailles – but it seems skipping back to 17th century Paris has given him a taste for time travel.
When Doctor Who's Twitter account asked what fans were most hoping for from series 10, Merlin actor Vlahos had a bold suggestion...
This isn't the first time Vlahos has made his penchant for Doctor Who abundantly clear – in a recent interview with RadioTimes.com the actor said of his Versailles role;
“The only time I would ever get to play something similar to this is if I played the Doctor.

Well, they do say perseverance is key.
