That is brilliant!

Hope someone makes him aware of it. Happy birthday Peter C. He's living the dream.

Love the Thick of It cake at the end, too. Didn't notice at first

That is bloody brilliant.

Also, good times! 56, and you wouldn't guess it. All the best, new Doctor!

Happy birthday Peter!!!

Peter Davison was 63 yesterday.

David Tennant will be 43 on Friday.

April seems to be a popular month for Doctors' birthdays.

Missed 'my' Doctor's birthday. Happy belated to Peter D. Apart from the hair (Son in law: "I can see why you wear a hat." or some such from 'Time Crash' )...reckon he's got a portrait in his attic.

Happy birthday Capaldi, what a birthday it must be to be in the process of fulfilling a lifelong dream. By the time he's 57 Im sure we'll all be toasting good old 12 and reminiscing about his series 8 antics

I wouldn't want to be someone who gave him a present he didn't like though. Imagine being subjected to 'that' angry eyes look

What if someone gave him a particularly technological gift. He might stand there bemused for a moment then say to the giver 'Just one question, do you happen to know how to use this thing?'

Wonder if he's got a similar cake from Matt

Nah, I'm sure they get along more than nicely

Happy Birthday Peter.

Bet he's loving his birthday this year, dream job and all!

Apparently someone asked Peter if he minded being at work on his birthday and he replied "It's not work, I'm the Doctor." If anyone thinks he's getting tired and wants to leave, I think this is prove enough that he isn't!
