WATCH: ‘Today’ Co-host Meredith Vieira Visits Set of ‘Doctor Who’

Meredith Vieira

Here’s something to perk you up on a Monday: Meredith Vieira made a visit to the set of Doctor Who recently, and she took us behind-the-scenes of the long-running sci-fi series in a segment that aired on this morning’s (May 9) Today Show on NBC. The affable co-anchor chatted with stars Matt Smith and Alex Kingston. She also flexed her acting chops, filming a cameo appearance that will air in this season of Doctor Who.

Meredith asked Alex Kingston what it takes to be a really good time traveler. Alex’s response? “You have to have a pair of Louboutin shoes.” Awesome.

Vieira’s Doctor Who gig is part of the “Anchors Abroad” series in which Today‘s stars head overseas for appearances on hit TV series in different countries.
