Doctor John Noble, special projects consultant for the Torchwood Institute, current professor of Science at Farringham School, and former fiance of Vitex heiress Rose Tyler, has announced his marriage to pediatric nurse Verity Newman.

They were joined in the bonds matrimony inside the chapel of Farringham School, where the bride and groom first met after Doctor Noble offered to fill in for a colleague when the man unexpectedly fell ill at the beginning of term.

The happy newlyweds have a second reason to celebrate as well, as they are expecting their first child to be born sometime this spring.
