It could have been an awkward meeting - one Doctor Who bumping into a former Doctor Who.
But that certainly wasn't the case when current Time Lord Matt Smith came face-to-face with the man he replaced, David Tennant, at the press night for new West End show Our Boys on Wednesday night.
The men had turned up to support another Doctor Who alumni, Billie Piper, as they watched her husband Laurence Fox take to the stage in the play.
Fancy seeing you here! Former Doctor Who David Tennant bumped into the man who replaced him, Matt Smith, at the press night for West End revival Our Boys on Wednesday night
And they looked positively delighted as they bumped into each other at the after party following the performance.
At first the men appeared to joke around and try to be stand offish with one another.
But that soon dispersed as the actors burst into laughter and spent some time catching up and joking around with each other.

Although it was a much better look than when she first arrived at the Duchess Theatre in a purple knitted jumper.
