Dr Who star John Barrowman thinks Weston-super-Mare would look nicer if all the rubbish on the streets was exterminated.

The actor and singer has performed several concerts for fans at The Playhouse.

And he revealed that when he had been for a walk around the town, he hadn’t liked seeing all the litter.

When one fan told him he was from ‘’around the corner’’ during an audience Q&A session, Barrowman said: “Around the corner? Not by all the trash on the bins there?

“I went out of the theatre and I had a walk around the streets and I actually did a video which I will post later and it went ‘I’m singing by the trash, I’m singing by the bins.”

Barrowman is going back on tour this year with a new show called My Life In Musicals.

And maybe the litter has put him off coming here as he will be performing at Bath Forum this time on September 25.

The West End star - best known for playing Captain Jack Harkness in Doctor Who and Torchwood - does like the seaside here though.

The last time he was here in 2025, he took his husband Scott for a drive along the seafront as it was his partner’s first time here.

He explained: “Scott was supposed to come here 50 years ago. It was a school trip that got cancelled. So when we got here he said ‘Can we just drive down the front and see the place?'"
