Lanarkshire musician Nathan Evans teams up with Doctor Who as latest tune features in Easter episode

Lanarkshire singing sensation Nathan Evans' music was heard by millions of TV viewers at the weekend as he teamed up with Doctor Who.

Nathan released catchy sea shanty ' Devils of the Deep' ahead of the Easter Sunday episode of the sci-fi family favourite.

And the 27-year-old Airdrie musician's terrific tune featured during the Doctor Who: Legend of the Sea Devils special.

TikTok superstar Nathan's song got to share a screen with the Time Lord in what was Jodie Whittaker's penultimate episode before stepping down her role as the Doctor.

And fans couldn't get enough of Nathan's quality crossover, as one described the unlikely pairing as a "dream come true".

They added: "Omg! I LOVE THIS! THIS IS A DREAM COME TRUE! I was wanting a doctor who parody of this! This is amazing!"

'Doctor Who: Legend of the Sea Devils' aired on Sunday night (BBC)

"That is brilliant!! Should be released ...really enjoyed it. Excellent," another said.

A third agreed: "Amazing Nathan! Your a real star!"

A fourth wrote: "My kiddos loves this song and the 2 year olds scream if i stop the music"

"Brilliant! Congratulations for connecting with @bbcdoctorwho!!!," praised another.

The episode found the Doctor in 19th century China, where a small coastal village is under threat - from both the fearsome pirate queen Madame Ching (Crystal Yu) and a monstrous alien force which she unwittingly unleashes.

Nathan's latest brush with fame comes just three months after he landed a cameo in hit comedy show Scot Squad .

The hilarious scenes saw the former postman being confronted by starstruck countryside cops PC Charlie McIntosh and PC Jane Mackay .
