Bands as Doctor Who - Friday Fun

Amy Winehouse to star in Dr. Who

Amy Winehouse to star in Dr. Who

Timelord-themed time-wasting is here

It's Friday, the new series of 'Doctor Who' gears up this weekend (the new series starts April 5 in the UK), so we're wasting time thinking up bands as 'Doctor Who' stuff to wile away the hours until the pub opens.

Here are a few efforts we've come up with so far:

Tar-Bis
Ace Of Base
Cyber-Manfred Man
Time Lordi
The Sonics Screwdrivers
The Face Of Bo Diddly
Captain Jack Harkness
Galli(The)Fray
Kl-Axons
Catherine Little Man Tate


And, of course, it gives us another excuse to put up our picture of Amy Winehouse with the Doctor (remember, it was for April Fools' Day, she's definitely not set to star alongside David Tennant...).

Reckon you can do better? Log in to MyNME below and leave your own in the comments box. Sounds stupid, but once you start you'll be addicted.
