FORMER Doctor Who star Christopher Eccleston has been snapped at a popular Italian restaurant in Newcastle.
The Salford-born actor was spotted dining at Newcastle institution Uno's Trattoria, near the Quayside, on Sunday (June 21).
Famed for roles in hits like 28 Days Later, The Leftovers and True Detective, Chris was thanked for coming along by Uno's general manager, Antonio Mauriello, who said the team were "thrilled to meet" the "really lovely, down-to-earth man".
"Not every day the Doctor drops in for dinner," he said, via social media.
"Fantastic guest, fantastic night."
The pair talked about the period when Chris was filming the hit Newcastle-based series 'Our Friends in the North' with Daniel Craig.
"Uno's was a trendy restaurant to visit, and it was one of the places he used to come back then, as we opened in 1989," said Antonio.
"He was very complimentary of our food and staff and signed our well-known signature wall."
