Look who it is: Karen Gillan is chatting on her mobile phone in London's Oxford Street when she spots a friend across the street


Doctor Who star Karen Gillan nearly broke her mobile phone after getting over-excited during a shopping trip in London yesterday.

The Scottish actress, 22, was chatting on her mobile in busy Oxford Street when she spotted a friend across the road.

After dashing across the road to greet her pal, the redhead dropped her phone in the path of traffic in the excitement of it all.

Fortunately for Gillan, her phone survived relatively unscathed and she was able to pick it up before it became roadkill.

Enjoying a spot of retail therapy on London's busy shopping mecca, the star was showing off her slim figure in a vintage-style peach dress and black ankle boots.

Gillan is set to begin filming her second series as the doctor's assistant Amy Pond, but is unsure if she'll be invited back for a third.

She said recently: 'Who knows? I'm just taking it series by series and I'm just having fun. So, I don't know. I have no idea.'
