Love in the Tardis

TRAVELLING Time Lord Or Who is coming down to earth to marry his sexy companion.

Actor Tom Baker will wed lovely Lalla Ward, who plays Time Lady Romana, before Christmas.

Then the two space adventurers will leave the Tardis police box where they discovered their heavenly romance.

Both are being written out of the popular BBC TV show at the end of the current series.

Yesterday's announcement ended months of speculation that the couple were enjoying more than a professional relationship.

Starry-eyed Lalla, 29, said: "Our romance has been on and off since the beginning of the year.

"Now it is definitely on. We are both looking forward to being married.

"I am selling my Chelsea fiat and shall move in with Tom in his London home."

Lalla, daughter of authors Viscount and Lady Bangor, added: "Tom didn't pop the question. It just happened," she said.

Tom, 45, who has been married before, is quitting Dr Who after five years in the role.

He will be replaced by Peter Davidson who played Tristan in TV's All Creatures Great And Small.

Lalla was told she would be dropped from the show after producer John Nathan Turner decided to give the show a new look.
