Our east coast correspondent, John Behling, attended the recent Dr. Who convention. During a panel that included Andy Pryor (Casting Director) and Caroline Skinner (Executive Producer). John asked them about casting Ben Browder in the role of Marshall Issac in an episode entitled "The Gunslingers".
 The casting director said he's known Ben for years, had been wanting to use him, and that "he's brilliant" (which we know). They wanted to cast Americans in roles for the western episode and when they saw the script, they asked Ben to "come over" and do it. The executive producer said it was easy casting. They were clearly impressed by him.
All of us who have been hoping to see Ben Brower in a western are really going to enjoy this episode of Dr. Who!

Farscape's Ben Browder + Doctor Who role = unbelievably awesome!
Oh boy, do we have some truly awesome news! We just learned that Farscape and Stargate SG-1 actor Ben Browder will guest-star in an upcoming episode of Doctor Who. Can we say Best. News. Ever?
According to this month's Doctor Who Magazine (in the U.K., so don't go looking for it in the U.S. right now), Browder—who played lost astronaut John Crichton on four seasons of Farscape and Lt. Col. Cameron Mitchell on two seasons of Stargate SG-1—has apparently been tapped to appear in the third episode of Doctor Who's seventh season. (Blastr.com)
 Stargate and Farscape star Ben Browder is the latest addition to the Doctor Who cast, according to the new issue of Doctor Who Magazine.
In addition to the previously-announced Rupert Graves, Mark Williams and David Bradley (all of whom, it is now confirmed, will appear in Chris Chibnall’s episode 2), Browder will be appearing alongside Downton Abbey‘s Adrian Scarborough in Toby Whithouse’s wild west episode, shooting in Spain. This is expected to air third, and is being directed by Saul Metzstein.

Sci-fi fans, prepare to begin freaking out. Farscape and Stargate SG-1 star Ben Browder is set to guest star on Doctor Who. Yes, that crash you heard was the sound of sci-fi universes colliding. Or maybe it was your sonic screwdriver falling off your lap when you jumped with excitement. (That's what it was over here, by the way.) (Zap2it)

The sci-fi icon from "Farscape" and "Stargate: SG-1" will run into the Doctor and his companions in the upcoming seventh season. Outside of the realms of fan fiction, The Doctor has never traveled to the Uncharted Territories or stepped through a Stargate alongside the SG-1 team. But the next season of "Doctor Who" may have the next best thing. (CraveOnline )
