I've made many mistakes,

00:01:03,638 --> 00:01:06,938

that I did
something about that.

kinda cranky and intense,

if he's a good guy or not.

104
00:04:32,808 --> 00:04:35,807

all that stuff going into
the season?

How did you
arrive at this guy?

those qualities in me.

(LAUGHING)

00:04:44,158 --> 00:04:46,217

Is that true, Steven?
110
00:04:48,028 --> 00:04:48,928
Uh, but in partly.
111
00:04:48,929 --> 00:04:50,927
It's partly maximising
what you've got
112
00:04:50,928 --> 00:04:52,057
with a new Doctor.
113
00:04:52,058 --> 00:04:53,588
- CHRIS HARDWICK: Yeah.
- Uh, and what we thought...
114
00:04:53,598 --> 00:04:55,467
I thought Peter
could bring to it.
115
00:04:55,468 --> 00:04:56,697
But, it's a lot, you know, uh...
116
00:04:56,698 --> 00:04:58,858
The truth about this is and
no one ever quite believes me,
117
00:04:58,868 --> 00:05:01,907
but the difference
in the way you write
the doctor,
118
00:05:01,908 --> 00:05:03,107
isn't that great!
119
00:05:03,108 --> 00:05:05,377
It's what the actors
bring to it,
120
00:05:05,378 --> 00:05:06,847
uh, that changes it.
121
00:05:06,848 --> 00:05:08,577
The changes in emphasis
122
00:05:08,578 --> 00:05:09,777
come from the actors.
123
00:05:09,778 --> 00:05:11,108
And you've kind of got to
124
00:05:11,118 --> 00:05:14,247
get out of the way of that
and facilitate it a bit.
125
00:05:14,248 --> 00:05:17,308
And as you start to see what
Peter's doing with it,
126
00:05:17,318 --> 00:05:18,318
and can do with it,
127
00:05:18,319 --> 00:05:20,148
you start writing towards it.
128
00:05:20,158 --> 00:05:21,727
It's just that on paper
129
00:05:21,728 --> 00:05:24,757
the Doctors are
surprisingly similar.
130
00:05:24,758 --> 00:05:25,358
It's what you, uh...
131
00:05:25,359 --> 00:05:28,258
It's what each of these
brilliant actors bring to it.
132
00:05:28,268 --> 00:05:31,737
HARDWICK: And how far
into shooting
133
00:05:31,738 --> 00:05:32,897
do you start noticing,
134
00:05:32,898 --> 00:05:34,198
"Uh, there is quirk
or there's something.
135
00:05:34,208 --> 00:05:35,737
"I think I kind of like what
they're doing with this,
136
00:05:35,738 --> 00:05:37,598
"so, I'm gonna sort of go
in this direction with it."
137
00:05:37,608 --> 00:05:39,977
Like, how long does it take
for you to go,
138
00:05:39,978 --> 00:05:42,513
"A-ha! This is the guy
that we've arrived at."
139
00:05:42,514 --> 00:05:44,068
It's pretty quick, actually.
140
00:05:44,078 --> 00:05:44,808
Because you're seeing it.
141
00:05:44,818 --> 00:05:47,047
And there's a massive shock
at the beginning.
142
00:05:47,048 --> 00:05:48,578
- 'Cause it's somebody else.
- HARDWICK: Yeah.
143
00:05:48,588 --> 00:05:50,887
You know, those first rushes,
which were,
144
00:05:50,888 --> 00:05:53,727
for his first appearance
in Deep Breath,
145
00:05:53,728 --> 00:05:55,097
where he pops out of the Tardis.
146
00:05:55,098 --> 00:05:57,988
That is the first thing
that he shot,
147
00:05:57,998 --> 00:05:59,527
apart from the regeneration.
148
00:05:59,528 --> 00:06:01,327
I see it very, very quickly, uh,
149
00:06:01,328 --> 00:06:03,488
seeing what, uh...
You know, how it's sounds,
150
00:06:03,498 --> 00:06:06,428
how it feels coming out
of that new mouth.
151
00:06:06,438 --> 00:06:06,908
But in a way,
152
00:06:06,909 --> 00:06:09,507
you always want to sort of
blind yourself to
153
00:06:09,508 --> 00:06:10,378
what it is that you're doing.
154
00:06:10,379 --> 00:06:11,977
You just start writing
for that voice.
155
00:06:11,978 --> 00:06:14,377
And Peter has a very,
very distinct voice.
156
00:06:14,378 --> 00:06:17,987
And he's Scottish, which is
just automatically better.
157
00:06:17,988 --> 00:06:20,038
(ALL LAUGHING)
158
00:06:20,048 --> 00:06:22,808
And for some reason easier
for me. I don't know.
159
00:06:22,818 --> 00:06:24,008
HARDWICK: And you just,
you just went...
160
00:06:24,018 --> 00:06:26,718
You just let him be
Scottish this season?
161
00:06:26,728 --> 00:06:27,358
Well...
162
00:06:27,359 --> 00:06:29,287
We'd let him be English before.
163
00:06:29,288 --> 00:06:30,288
What difference is it?
164
00:06:30,298 --> 00:06:32,157
It doesn't make any sense.
165
00:06:32,158 --> 00:06:34,188
I mean, why would he have
an English accent,
166
00:06:34,198 --> 00:06:36,867
American accent,
a Scottish accent, why?
167
00:06:36,868 --> 00:06:38,667
HARDWICK: Because a lot places
have a north!
168
00:06:38,668 --> 00:06:40,467
- (AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
- Uh, not you apparently.
169
00:06:40,468 --> 00:06:44,298
HARDWICK: Not me.
No, I didn't say
I was good at it.
170
00:06:44,708 --> 00:06:46,037
Um, you, uh...
171
00:06:46,038 --> 00:06:49,568
You people already knew,
you were going into this?
172
00:06:49,578 --> 00:06:49,908
Which...
173
00:06:49,918 --> 00:06:52,317
But did you feel the weight
of Doctor Who immediately?
174
00:06:52,318 --> 00:06:54,247
I mean, has it been
unlike any other
175
00:06:54,248 --> 00:06:57,648
experience, any other show
that you've worked on before?
176
00:06:57,658 --> 00:06:58,528
Well, it's...
177
00:06:58,529 --> 00:07:01,718
It's the only show that
I think is, uh,
178
00:07:01,728 --> 00:07:03,998
in my bones very deeply.
179
00:07:04,128 --> 00:07:06,097
It's the only show
that I have, uh,
180
00:07:06,098 --> 00:07:09,398
followed since I was
six years old.
181
00:07:09,898 --> 00:07:10,828
So, although...
182
00:07:10,838 --> 00:07:11,967
You know, I always think
people have a very
183
00:07:11,968 --> 00:07:14,507
intimate relationship with
the programme Doctor Who.
184
00:07:14,508 --> 00:07:17,437
Even though it,
it now exists on this scale.
185
00:07:17,438 --> 00:07:19,168
Which is huge and wonderful.
186
00:07:19,178 --> 00:07:22,277
Um, it's the only show that
I've ever been in,
187
00:07:22,278 --> 00:07:23,917
and I really knew and loved.
188
00:07:23,918 --> 00:07:27,047
And even when I went and I did
an episode with, uh...
189
00:07:27,048 --> 00:07:28,578
- David Tennant...
- Mmm-hmm.
190
00:07:28,588 --> 00:07:31,887
- (AUDIENCE CHEERING)
- It was...
191
00:07:31,888 --> 00:07:32,688
It was fantastic.
192
00:07:32,689 --> 00:07:34,787
And I was so excited
to be there,
193
00:07:34,788 --> 00:07:37,018
and I thought that would be
my only contribution.
194
00:07:37,028 --> 00:07:40,197
The only time that
I would get to be in
Doctor Who.
195
00:07:40,198 --> 00:07:43,133
And I remember turning up on
the set and saying to him,
196
00:07:43,134 --> 00:07:45,658
"David, David,
where's the Tardis?"
197
00:07:45,668 --> 00:07:46,468
(AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
198
00:07:46,469 --> 00:07:50,728
And he took me over
to the police box
in the corner,
199
00:07:50,738 --> 00:07:52,337
and I got quite teary.
200
00:07:52,338 --> 00:07:54,138
- And I thought "Wow..."
- HARDWICK: You're like,
201
00:07:54,148 --> 00:07:55,018
(HOARSELY) "Someday."
202
00:07:55,019 --> 00:07:57,208
No. You know,
I never thought that.
203
00:07:57,218 --> 00:07:59,683
I never thought that
that would be a direction
204
00:07:59,684 --> 00:08:02,378
that we would be going in
the game with Doctor Who.
205
00:08:02,388 --> 00:08:04,757
Um, so I was thrilled that, uh,
206
00:08:04,758 --> 00:08:08,027
Steven did decide to go in
that direction. And here I am.
207
00:08:08,028 --> 00:08:10,097
HARDWICK: Yeah. Uh, Jenna,
208
00:08:10,098 --> 00:08:11,397
wonderful companion.
209
00:08:11,398 --> 00:08:14,767
- I mean, it's even so...
- (AUDIENCE CHEERING)
210
00:08:14,768 --> 00:08:17,197
I even feel like
it's weird to even
211
00:08:17,198 --> 00:08:19,328
use the term "companion" because
212
00:08:19,338 --> 00:08:21,977
I feel like you kind of dommed
the Doctor
213
00:08:21,978 --> 00:08:23,868
this season a little bit.
214
00:08:23,878 --> 00:08:25,077
I mean it wasn't...
215
00:08:25,078 --> 00:08:25,678
It felt like he was...
216
00:08:25,679 --> 00:08:27,807
There was some slapping.
I could feel a little...
Some staged.
217
00:08:27,808 --> 00:08:31,538
HARDWICK: It kinda felt like
there were some episodes
where it sort of feels like,
218
00:08:31,548 --> 00:08:33,617
"He's her companion
right now!"
219
00:08:33,618 --> 00:08:37,617
So, you know, coming from
the previous seasons,
220
00:08:37,618 --> 00:08:38,478
did you guys figure out like,
221
00:08:38,488 --> 00:08:41,127
"Well, let's, you know,
let's take a little bit
of turn with Clara,
222
00:08:41,128 --> 00:08:44,557
"Let's kind of make
her more this character."
223
00:08:44,558 --> 00:08:45,718
No, not really, I mean...
224
00:08:45,728 --> 00:08:48,667
Um, we saw the school teacher,
side of Clara.
225
00:08:48,668 --> 00:08:51,937
And, um, I think maybe like
the Earth bound side of Clara.
226
00:08:51,938 --> 00:08:53,137
And then, actually,
227
00:08:53,138 --> 00:08:54,773
I think, I think a lot of
last series
228
00:08:54,774 --> 00:08:56,668
was about them working
each other out,
229
00:08:56,678 --> 00:09:00,407
and working how this
new dynamic is gonna work.
230
00:09:00,408 --> 00:09:01,438
Um...
231
00:09:01,448 --> 00:09:03,177
Which is great actually
cause with shooting,
232
00:09:03,178 --> 00:09:04,838
we're mid-shooting
at the moment.
233
00:09:04,848 --> 00:09:07,487
And in a way, we're kind of...
234
00:09:07,488 --> 00:09:09,087
We've found our groove together.
235
00:09:09,088 --> 00:09:12,887
And I feel like they are
on really equal kind of terms.
236
00:09:12,888 --> 00:09:14,218
They both help drive the Tardis.
237
00:09:14,228 --> 00:09:16,427
-Well, I help drive
the Tardis.
-HARDWICK: Yeah. Of course.
238
00:09:16,428 --> 00:09:18,727
I press a lot of buttons
and Peter look at me.
239
00:09:18,728 --> 00:09:21,297
HARDWICK: You stick your hands
into that jelly psychic stuff.
240
00:09:21,298 --> 00:09:23,067
I try to.
I get really overexcited,
241
00:09:23,068 --> 00:09:24,867
and then I just see Peter
being very cool
242
00:09:24,868 --> 00:09:28,277
just staring at me
across the console
like, "No!"
243
00:09:28,278 --> 00:09:30,068
(LAUGHING)
244
00:09:30,078 --> 00:09:30,808
But this also...
245
00:09:30,809 --> 00:09:33,747
You know, you're managing
a relationship this season,
246
00:09:33,748 --> 00:09:34,448
and so how do you...
247
00:09:34,449 --> 00:09:36,647
How did your relationship
with Danny Pink...
248
00:09:36,648 --> 00:09:37,677
How did that factor
in with your role?
249
00:09:37,678 --> 00:09:40,808
What is the relationship
with you and the Doctor
at this point?
250
00:09:40,818 --> 00:09:41,618
- Now?
- Yeah.
251
00:09:41,619 --> 00:09:42,917
-Of what we're filming
right now?
-Yeah.
252
00:09:42,918 --> 00:09:44,978
Well, I mean, obviously,
you probably can't really say.
253
00:09:44,988 --> 00:09:47,287
- In series eight...
- That's right, Steven.
254
00:09:47,288 --> 00:09:48,487
In series eight,
255
00:09:48,488 --> 00:09:50,388
what was your guys'
relationship?
256
00:09:50,398 --> 00:09:51,727
I think we were figuring it out.
257
00:09:51,728 --> 00:09:53,227
It was kind of quite
experimental.
258
00:09:53,228 --> 00:09:55,458
It was... I mean, it's kind of
like getting to know
259
00:09:55,468 --> 00:09:57,637
your best friend all over again.
260
00:09:57,638 --> 00:09:59,737
And the rules are different
and, um,
261
00:09:59,738 --> 00:10:01,107
the dynamic
is totally different.
262
00:10:01,108 --> 00:10:03,777
So, it was a case of it all
being thrown up in the air
263
00:10:03,778 --> 00:10:08,477
and us exploring it together
and seeing how it falls.
264
00:10:08,478 --> 00:10:09,378
- I suppose.
- HARDWICK: Yeah.
265
00:10:09,379 --> 00:10:11,477
Well, one of the questions,
like over on Walking Dead,
it's like,
266
00:10:11,478 --> 00:10:14,908
"Well, can you have
a relationship
in the zombie apocalypse?"
267
00:10:14,918 --> 00:10:16,087
And it seems like, is it...
268
00:10:16,088 --> 00:10:18,527
How hard is it to maintain
a relationship,
269
00:10:18,528 --> 00:10:21,948
when you are a companion
to this man who
270
00:10:21,958 --> 00:10:24,027
snaps you up at a moment's
notice and...
271
00:10:24,028 --> 00:10:27,627
How do you manage
a personal life in that world?
272
00:10:27,628 --> 00:10:31,088
Um, well, she has a rule that
she has to be dropped off
273
00:10:31,098 --> 00:10:34,458
like thirty seconds after she
left the Tardis.
274
00:10:34,468 --> 00:10:34,928
After she left.
275
00:10:34,938 --> 00:10:36,207
- HARDWICK: Right.
- That was kind of a thing.
276
00:10:36,208 --> 00:10:38,777
-Cause she doesn't actually
live on the Tardis.
-MOFFAT: No.
277
00:10:38,778 --> 00:10:40,247
She saying,
"I'll come and travel
278
00:10:40,248 --> 00:10:42,107
"through all the time
in space with you.
279
00:10:42,108 --> 00:10:42,608
"But only if
280
00:10:42,609 --> 00:10:44,777
"you'll drop me off
30 seconds after I've left."
281
00:10:44,778 --> 00:10:45,778
So, you know, I don't miss like,
282
00:10:45,779 --> 00:10:47,908
- maths class or something.
- HARDWICK: Right.
283
00:10:47,918 --> 00:10:49,357
Why do you think she does it?
284
00:10:49,358 --> 00:10:52,778
Um, I think she's a bit
of a control freak.
285
00:10:52,788 --> 00:10:54,278
And I think she's trying to,
286
00:10:54,288 --> 00:10:56,348
trying to have both lives
at once.
287
00:10:56,358 --> 00:10:57,618
HARDWICK: Yeah.
'Cause she was...
288
00:10:57,628 --> 00:11:01,097
She basically lied to Danny
a couple of times.
289
00:11:01,098 --> 00:11:02,267
Like, "Oh, he says it's fine."
290
00:11:02,268 --> 00:11:04,867
No. It was like
bending the truth.
291
00:11:04,868 --> 00:11:05,768
(LAUGHING)
292
00:11:05,769 --> 00:11:08,867
I'm in a big tangle of lies
last series.
293
00:11:08,868 --> 00:11:11,268
But, um, this series
it's much more...
294
00:11:11,278 --> 00:11:14,677
She's head-first
in the Tardis with the Doctor.
295
00:11:14,678 --> 00:11:15,018
Right.
296
00:11:15,019 --> 00:11:18,338
Uh, I wanna talk to Michelle
for a sec, about, uh,
297
00:11:18,348 --> 00:11:21,917
- her wonderful...
- (AUDIENCE CHEERING)
298
00:11:21,918 --> 00:11:22,688
I mean...
299
00:11:22,689 --> 00:11:25,127
You should be caught up
by now if you're here.
300
00:11:25,128 --> 00:11:27,178
But, uh, mistress...
301
00:11:27,188 --> 00:11:28,318
(STAMMERS) This...
302
00:11:28,328 --> 00:11:29,887
Seeing the ark of her,
303
00:11:29,888 --> 00:11:32,757
and seeing all the speculation
from that first episode,
304
00:11:32,758 --> 00:11:36,988
and then seeing, oh, heaven
afterlife weird Missy,
305
00:11:36,998 --> 00:11:39,928
what was your approach
to this character,
306
00:11:39,938 --> 00:11:42,473
as we got crumbs of her
throughout the season
307
00:11:42,474 --> 00:11:44,268
and then finally paying off?
308
00:11:44,278 --> 00:11:45,907
Well, luckily I never know,
309
00:11:45,908 --> 00:11:48,077
why I'm saying, what I'm saying.
310
00:11:48,078 --> 00:11:51,417
So, it kind of helped to kind of
311
00:11:51,418 --> 00:11:54,087
arrive fresh.
312
00:11:54,088 --> 00:11:55,487
And, um,
313
00:11:55,488 --> 00:11:56,388
just trying to
314
00:11:56,389 --> 00:11:59,857
stay as present as I could
on the day.
315
00:11:59,858 --> 00:12:02,593
And, uh, and obviously
the writing is...
316
00:12:02,594 --> 00:12:03,918
It's all there for me.
317
00:12:03,928 --> 00:12:05,457
It's, it's kind of
318
00:12:05,458 --> 00:12:08,227
one of the easiest jobs
I've ever had.
319
00:12:08,228 --> 00:12:10,988
Because it's just, um...
320
00:12:10,998 --> 00:12:13,128
It's just a thrill to turn up,
321
00:12:13,138 --> 00:12:15,937
and be given this
opportunity to...
322
00:12:15,938 --> 00:12:16,738
to be the master.
323
00:12:16,739 --> 00:12:20,638
So, it's all sort of a
"pinch me" moment really.
324
00:12:20,648 --> 00:12:24,347
Um, so I would just hope that,
you know, um,
325
00:12:24,348 --> 00:12:27,487
as long as I knew my lines
and I could turn up on the day
326
00:12:27,488 --> 00:12:31,057
that some little magic would
happen and it just...
327
00:12:31,058 --> 00:12:32,927
You know, we're really lucky
that the dynamic
328
00:12:32,928 --> 00:12:35,748
between the three of us
was sort of, um,
329
00:12:35,758 --> 00:12:38,527
instantly, really
seemed to work.
330
00:12:38,528 --> 00:12:39,328
So, um...
331
00:12:39,329 --> 00:12:42,733
HARDWICK: Who do you, who do
you think the master is?
332
00:12:42,734 --> 00:12:45,528
And what do you think
she wants ultimately?
333
00:12:45,538 --> 00:12:48,007
I think, "He" or "She" or "It",
334
00:12:48,008 --> 00:12:52,977
um, is everybody's idea
of the kind of, uh,
335
00:12:52,978 --> 00:12:56,477
the best villain,
you could have maybe.
336
00:12:56,478 --> 00:12:57,438
It's like the kind of...
337
00:12:57,448 --> 00:13:00,147
Like, it's kind of like
the best friend, um,
338
00:13:00,148 --> 00:13:02,247
that you love to hate,
I suppose in a way.
339
00:13:02,248 --> 00:13:05,878
And, uh, she gets to say
all the stuff that we think,
340
00:13:05,888 --> 00:13:08,157
but we are not allowed to say.
341
00:13:08,158 --> 00:13:10,527
And, um...
342
00:13:10,528 --> 00:13:13,727
She just has the kind of
attitude where,
343
00:13:13,728 --> 00:13:15,588
the rules don't apply to her.
344
00:13:15,598 --> 00:13:19,837
And it's... That makes it
really fun to play.
345
00:13:19,838 --> 00:13:23,207
HARDWICK: But there is
a really nice moment
at the end,
346
00:13:23,208 --> 00:13:25,307
where it just seemed like
347
00:13:25,308 --> 00:13:26,577
she just wants her friend.
348
00:13:26,578 --> 00:13:28,147
Like, it just seemed to
be about friendship.
349
00:13:28,148 --> 00:13:30,877
Where you would think,
well, there are these
two opposing forces,
350
00:13:30,878 --> 00:13:32,977
and they're constantly
at odds with each other,
351
00:13:32,978 --> 00:13:34,778
but at the end it just
seemed like,
352
00:13:34,788 --> 00:13:36,187
"No. I just, you know..."
353
00:13:36,188 --> 00:13:36,958
Like, "What happened to us?"
354
00:13:36,959 --> 00:13:40,227
I mean, yeah, if you really
break it down it's like, uh...
355
00:13:40,228 --> 00:13:41,387
It's this great friendship,
356
00:13:41,388 --> 00:13:43,387
that just went wrong, you know,
357
00:13:43,388 --> 00:13:44,888
and we've all had them.
358
00:13:44,898 --> 00:13:45,498
And, um...
359
00:13:45,499 --> 00:13:48,597
So, it just sort of seems to
be like her life's purpose
360
00:13:48,598 --> 00:13:49,827
to kind of you know,
361
00:13:49,828 --> 00:13:50,728
chase after the Doctor,
362
00:13:50,738 --> 00:13:54,437
and try and make him
understand that you know,
363
00:13:54,438 --> 00:13:57,737
"No, you started it.
I'm right."
364
00:13:57,738 --> 00:13:58,868
- (LAUGHING)
- So...
365
00:13:58,878 --> 00:14:01,577
"As long as...
But you're not getting that."
366
00:14:01,578 --> 00:14:02,048
So, uh...
367
00:14:02,049 --> 00:14:06,517
"And you're also getting in
the way of me trying to, um,
destroy the Universe."
368
00:14:06,518 --> 00:14:08,317
- Which, you know...
- (AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
369
00:14:08,318 --> 00:14:09,188
Well, we've all been there.
370
00:14:09,189 --> 00:14:11,657
"And I really, really have
to do. But, you're just..."
371
00:14:11,658 --> 00:14:14,787
The Doctor's just a bit of
an irritant when it comes
to that.
372
00:14:14,788 --> 00:14:18,618
HARDWICK: Steven,
how do you define their
relationship with regard to...
373
00:14:18,628 --> 00:14:19,228
Oh, they are friends.
374
00:14:19,229 --> 00:14:21,027
That's the terrifying thing.
That's what's interesting.
375
00:14:21,028 --> 00:14:22,727
Well, they're not
enemies at all.
376
00:14:22,728 --> 00:14:23,658
She isn't his arch enemy.
377
00:14:23,668 --> 00:14:26,403
The Master's always been
the Doctor's best friend.
378
00:14:26,404 --> 00:14:28,158
They just unfold...
It's a friendship
379
00:14:28,168 --> 00:14:30,868
between a vegetarian
and a hunter.
380
00:14:30,878 --> 00:14:32,207
(ALL LAUGHING)
381
00:14:32,208 --> 00:14:34,407
If you were to talk to
Missy right now,
382
00:14:34,408 --> 00:14:36,038
and indeed you just have,
383
00:14:36,048 --> 00:14:36,518
uh, she, uh...
384
00:14:36,508 --> 00:14:38,708
-She would say, "What do you
mean, I kill people."
-GOMEZ: Yeah.
385
00:14:38,718 --> 00:14:41,147
"What do you think is in
your bacon sandwich
right now."
386
00:14:41,148 --> 00:14:42,808
- HARDWICK: Right.
- "I mean, so what?
387
00:14:42,818 --> 00:14:45,757
"The Doctor's
a bleeding heart Liberal.
388
00:14:45,758 --> 00:14:46,927
"And I like to kill people
for fun.
389
00:14:46,928 --> 00:14:50,448
"That doesn't mean we don't
have a lovely time together."
390
00:14:50,458 --> 00:14:51,588
(ALL LAUGHING)
391
00:14:51,598 --> 00:14:54,027
GOMEZ: I mean, that's
the difference right there.
392
00:14:54,028 --> 00:14:54,888
We both do the same thing.
393
00:14:54,898 --> 00:14:56,433
We both kill a lot of people.
394
00:14:56,434 --> 00:14:58,497
He feels bad about it.
I don't.
395
00:14:58,498 --> 00:15:01,358
- HARDWICK: Right.
- (AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
396
00:15:01,968 --> 00:15:03,567
She meant in character.
397
00:15:03,568 --> 00:15:05,437
(ALL LAUGHING)
398
00:15:05,438 --> 00:15:07,038
Broadly speaking.
399
00:15:07,048 --> 00:15:10,717
HARDWICK: How do you
see it, Peter? How do you
see their relationship?
400
00:15:10,718 --> 00:15:12,983
- Doctor and Master?
- HARDWICK: Yeah.
401
00:15:12,984 --> 00:15:15,347
I think she
distresses him terribly.
402
00:15:15,348 --> 00:15:16,608
HARDWICK: (CHUCKLING) Yeah.
403
00:15:16,618 --> 00:15:20,078
I think she's...
He's pleased to see her.
404
00:15:20,428 --> 00:15:20,788
Um...
405
00:15:20,789 --> 00:15:25,257
And I have to say, really,
a lot of biz has been made
of the gender change.
406
00:15:25,258 --> 00:15:32,297
But I think, people
should really applaud Michelle
for coming into this role.
407
00:15:32,298 --> 00:15:36,328
-Just embracing it
and filling it so completely.
-HARDWICK: Yeah.
408
00:15:36,338 --> 00:15:38,938
(AUDIENCE CHEERING)
409
00:15:41,148 --> 00:15:44,377
So, yeah, I think
he finds her...
410
00:15:44,378 --> 00:15:46,077
His heart kind of sinks.
(LAUGHS)
411
00:15:46,078 --> 00:15:49,308
-You know, when someone walks
into the room and you go,
-(GOMEZ LAUGHING)
412
00:15:49,318 --> 00:15:50,288
"I'm pleased to see."
Then you go,
413
00:15:50,289 --> 00:15:54,027
"Oh, I remember.
Now, I'm gonna have
to go through all this shit."
414
00:15:54,028 --> 00:15:55,457
- Something...
- (ALL LAUGHING)
415
00:15:55,458 --> 00:15:58,027
Something really bad
is going to happen now.
416
00:15:58,028 --> 00:15:59,827
And I'm going to have
to put up with all of this.
417
00:15:59,828 --> 00:16:01,318
- HARDWICK: Yeah.
- Um, that's what it's like.
418
00:16:01,328 --> 00:16:04,588
HARDWICK: Yeah, because,
basically, you know,
up until...
419
00:16:04,598 --> 00:16:06,028
He spends so much
of his time thinking
420
00:16:06,038 --> 00:16:08,307
"I'm alone, I'm alone
in the universe,
I'm the last of my kind.
421
00:16:08,308 --> 00:16:12,077
"Oh, I'm not!
Oh, that's the one
that survived, crap!"
422
00:16:12,078 --> 00:16:13,947
- You know?
- (AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
423
00:16:13,948 --> 00:16:16,347
Life is shit.
Business as usual.
424
00:16:16,348 --> 00:16:17,218
(ALL LAUGHING)
425
00:16:17,219 --> 00:16:18,887
But the idea...
There seems to be this...
426
00:16:18,888 --> 00:16:22,108
- There seems to be this...
- (AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
427
00:16:22,118 --> 00:16:23,587
GOMEZ: Scottish and all.
428
00:16:23,588 --> 00:16:26,487
That's Scottish philosophy.
429
00:16:26,488 --> 00:16:28,918
(ALL LAUGHING)
430
00:16:30,828 --> 00:16:32,197
But, this idea,
431
00:16:32,198 --> 00:16:35,867
where it seemed like
that they were trying
this season to show...
432
00:16:35,868 --> 00:16:38,137
Do you think the Doctor
understands who he is,
433
00:16:38,138 --> 00:16:39,637
do you think he's able
to admit what he is?
434
00:16:39,638 --> 00:16:44,677
And do you agree
with the assessment
of a lot of the story going,
435
00:16:44,678 --> 00:16:48,477
"No, no, no, you're a soldier,
like, you kill people,
436
00:16:48,478 --> 00:16:51,017
"you're not, you know,
you may not be a good guy"?
437
00:16:51,018 --> 00:16:55,487
No, I think the Doctor is...
I think the process
of regeneration
438
00:16:55,488 --> 00:17:00,657
is one that as much of a shock
to incumbent as it is
to everyone else.
439
00:17:00,658 --> 00:17:02,457
So, I think he doesn't know
who he is.
440
00:17:02,458 --> 00:17:05,057
So, he spends
a lot of the time
scrambling around
441
00:17:05,058 --> 00:17:08,058
trying to find out
what his character is,
what his nature is.
442
00:17:08,068 --> 00:17:12,267
And obviously in season eight,
I think he struggled a lot
with the fact
443
00:17:12,268 --> 00:17:16,137
that he knew he was compelled
from within
444
00:17:16,138 --> 00:17:18,137
to pursue the greater good.
445
00:17:18,138 --> 00:17:22,268
Which would often mean
that he would leave wreckage
in his path.
446
00:17:22,278 --> 00:17:25,987
And he would do that,
but he wasn't
comfortable with it.
447
00:17:25,988 --> 00:17:30,378
He didn't know
that was a good thing
to do or to be.
448
00:17:30,388 --> 00:17:33,027
So, he's a constantly
growing character.
449
00:17:33,028 --> 00:17:36,287
I think he...
He's not a soldier.
450
00:17:36,288 --> 00:17:40,558
He's a good guy.
He'd rather there was
no violence.
451
00:17:40,568 --> 00:17:41,498
He'd rather there was peace.
452
00:17:41,499 --> 00:17:46,537
He'd rather sit in
the car park at night,
looking at the stars,
453
00:17:46,538 --> 00:17:49,807
you know, than have to go out
and blow up Daleks.
454
00:17:49,808 --> 00:17:53,043
- I like blowing up Daleks.
- (AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
455
00:17:53,044 --> 00:17:55,807
And I think he enjoys it
as well once it gets going.
456
00:17:55,808 --> 00:17:57,238
But, yeah, I don't think
he sees him as...
457
00:17:57,248 --> 00:17:59,887
- He's not a military figure.
- HARDWICK: Right.
458
00:17:59,888 --> 00:18:07,818
He's a sort of
Bohemian/Philosopher/
Rebel Time Lord.
459
00:18:07,828 --> 00:18:08,428
HARDWICK: Great.
460
00:18:08,429 --> 00:18:12,657
Jenna, it seemed like Clara
was sort of struggling
461
00:18:12,658 --> 00:18:15,088
with who he was
this season a lot too.
462
00:18:15,098 --> 00:18:17,937
And it seemed like, there was
one particular episode
where it seemed like
463
00:18:17,938 --> 00:18:20,437
"Oh, they're gonna break up."
Like, there was
a break up episode
464
00:18:20,438 --> 00:18:23,907
which genuinely made me sad,
at the time of the episode,
we were like,
465
00:18:23,908 --> 00:18:26,107
"Well this is our last,
you know..."
466
00:18:26,108 --> 00:18:27,147
'Cause it felt very much like,
467
00:18:27,148 --> 00:18:29,838
oh, when you're in
a relationship,
you have a 'one more time'.
468
00:18:29,848 --> 00:18:30,917
- And maybe this is it.
- Yeah.
469
00:18:30,918 --> 00:18:33,917
Did she really believe
that was gonna be it?
470
00:18:33,918 --> 00:18:36,987
I think... I think
she got scared actually.
471
00:18:36,988 --> 00:18:40,387
I think it was
the Kill The Moon episode,
you're talking about
472
00:18:40,388 --> 00:18:42,218
that they had the big
barney at the end.
473
00:18:42,228 --> 00:18:43,028
- HARDWICK: Yes.
- Yeah.
474
00:18:43,029 --> 00:18:48,467
Um, I think she got scared
and suddenly didn't feel safe.
Maybe for a moment.
475
00:18:48,468 --> 00:18:50,897
Cause she was so used
to having the eleventh Doctor,
476
00:18:50,898 --> 00:18:53,797
she was familiar
with how it was working.
477
00:18:53,798 --> 00:18:57,568
And then suddenly,
your best friend
changes his face,
478
00:18:57,578 --> 00:19:02,477
and who know what
to trust any more.
(LAUGHS)
479
00:19:02,478 --> 00:19:03,378
So, I think it was um...
480
00:19:03,379 --> 00:19:06,938
It was just getting
to know each other
all over again.
481
00:19:06,948 --> 00:19:08,908
Getting to know somebody
who, uh...
482
00:19:08,918 --> 00:19:13,257
You described it to me as,
"Imagine going in to see
someone who's had,
483
00:19:13,258 --> 00:19:17,527
"who's had an operation,
who looks different
and you go to see them..."
484
00:19:17,528 --> 00:19:22,067
And it's trying...
It's like changing
all the rules, basically.
485
00:19:22,068 --> 00:19:22,598
HARDWICK: Yeah.
486
00:19:22,599 --> 00:19:25,737
And do you think
she's starting to get
to a comfortable place?
487
00:19:25,738 --> 00:19:29,707
Oh yeah,
they're very much a team.
488
00:19:29,708 --> 00:19:32,677
I think after the end
of last series,
489
00:19:32,678 --> 00:19:34,777
they're kind of,
they've found their groove.
490
00:19:34,778 --> 00:19:36,513
And they're very united
in the Tardis,
491
00:19:36,514 --> 00:19:40,338
kind of eating up
all of time and space
with reckless abandon.
492
00:19:40,348 --> 00:19:43,808
-HARDWICK: Excellent.
-CAPALDI: What could
possibly go wrong?

00:19:46,888 --> 00:19:47,878
- Uh...
- (OMINOUS TONE) The Finale.
495
00:19:47,888 --> 00:19:50,718
We are gonna take
some questions
in a few minutes
496
00:19:50,728 --> 00:19:52,427
but, right now, we're talking
about series eight,
497
00:19:52,428 --> 00:19:55,767
but, I think now
is a good time
to spin a little bit
498
00:19:55,768 --> 00:19:58,037
and start talking
about series nine.
499
00:19:58,038 --> 00:19:59,967
- We happen to...

never before seen
trailer of series nine,
502
00:20:05,238 --> 00:20:10,207
which seems like
this is the appropriate place
to show that.
503
00:20:10,208 --> 00:20:14,708
So, let's roll the preview
for series nine, Doctor Who.

00:20:34,038 --> 00:20:35,708
it surprises me.
508
00:20:39,238 --> 00:20:43,968
It's impossible. I hate it.
It's evil. It's astonishing.
509
00:20:48,018 --> 00:20:50,688
I wanna kiss it to death.
510
00:21:09,838 --> 00:21:11,678
(INAUDIBLE)
511
00:21:22,518 --> 00:21:26,788
I'm the Doctor,
and I save people.
512
00:21:41,668 --> 00:21:42,867
You?
513
00:21:42,868 --> 00:21:44,868
What took you so long, old man?
514
00:21:47,008 --> 00:21:50,138
- (AUDIENCE CHEERING)
- Oh, interesting.
515
00:21:51,448 --> 00:21:53,518
Very interesting.
516
00:21:53,918 --> 00:21:55,017
MAN: Oh, my God!
517
00:21:55,018 --> 00:21:56,818
Oh, my God?
518
00:21:59,718 --> 00:22:04,318
So, we got an airdate
for the next series,
September 19th.
519
00:22:04,328 --> 00:22:06,227
(AUDIENCE CHEERING)
520
00:22:06,228 --> 00:22:09,668
We see that you're all in it,
so that's good.
521
00:22:09,728 --> 00:22:14,098
And then a little
Maisie Williams cameo
at the end there.
522
00:22:14,108 --> 00:22:15,537
(AUDIENCE CHEERING)
523
00:22:15,538 --> 00:22:18,077
What can you say
about that, Steven?
524
00:22:18,078 --> 00:22:20,077
Well, nothing.
525
00:22:20,078 --> 00:22:21,147
HARDWICK: Damn it!
526
00:22:21,148 --> 00:22:22,677
- (ALL LAUGHING)
- MAN: I knew it!
527
00:22:22,678 --> 00:22:25,377
I think it's gonna
be surprising
what she gets up to.
528
00:22:25,378 --> 00:22:28,238
But, honestly, I can't say
a single thing about it.
529
00:22:28,248 --> 00:22:29,108
I would spoil it all.
530
00:22:29,118 --> 00:22:31,487
-HARDWICK: I guess
that's right, yeah.
-She's great.
531
00:22:31,488 --> 00:22:33,557
HARDWICK: So,
going into this season
532
00:22:33,558 --> 00:22:36,157
from the transition
from the last season
to this season,
533
00:22:36,158 --> 00:22:38,927
how did you feel?
Was there anything different
that you...
534
00:22:38,928 --> 00:22:40,827
Any direction
that was different
that you wanted to go
535
00:22:40,828 --> 00:22:43,688
or just, now that you've been
in his skin for a while...
536
00:22:43,698 --> 00:22:45,497
- Yeah.
- What's series nine been like?
537
00:22:45,498 --> 00:22:48,598
It's been a gas, you know.
It's just been so much fun.
538
00:22:48,608 --> 00:22:54,077
I think it's great feeling
that, you know, the writers
all know me now.
539
00:22:54,078 --> 00:22:57,817
And sort of want to write
for me.
540
00:22:57,818 --> 00:23:04,317
And I think because Clara
and the Doctor feel more
in a groove,
541
00:23:04,318 --> 00:23:07,078
I think that
they're really enjoying
542
00:23:07,088 --> 00:23:10,387
being the luckiest people
in all of history.
543
00:23:10,388 --> 00:23:13,388
Because they get to play
with this immense toy box
544
00:23:13,398 --> 00:23:15,967
which is time, space
and the universe.
545
00:23:15,968 --> 00:23:22,737
And they throw themselves
recklessly, you know,
into the pursuit of a venture.
546
00:23:22,738 --> 00:23:25,207
Which is lovely,
that's a whole
kind of different tone.
547
00:23:25,208 --> 00:23:28,677
That's a whole kind of,
you know, it's daredevil.
548
00:23:28,678 --> 00:23:31,877
It's fun, it's witty
and it's clever.
549
00:23:31,878 --> 00:23:35,238
We also have men
in rubber suits pretending
to be monsters.
550
00:23:35,248 --> 00:23:37,478
Which is
one of the great things
about Doctor Who.
551
00:23:37,488 --> 00:23:41,927
You will always have...
There's a B movie element
that still survives
552
00:23:41,928 --> 00:23:45,357
along with the philosophical
Freudian elements.
553
00:23:45,358 --> 00:23:48,558
HARDWICK: Yes, but he effects
did get a lot better.
554
00:23:48,568 --> 00:23:49,737
- (LAUGHTER)
- The original...
555
00:23:49,738 --> 00:23:52,797
The effects are fabulous,
but I think one of
the great...
556
00:23:52,798 --> 00:23:55,828
You know, one of my most...
People say,
"What was it like?"
557
00:23:55,838 --> 00:23:57,737
"When did you first
feel like Doctor Who?"
558
00:23:57,738 --> 00:24:01,098
I think it was when they threw
a rubber spider at my face
559
00:24:01,108 --> 00:24:03,438
and said, "Fight it."
560
00:24:03,448 --> 00:24:05,888
(ALL LAUGHING)
561
00:24:07,318 --> 00:24:10,087
I was like, "Doesn't it work?
Where's the operator?"
562
00:24:10,088 --> 00:24:15,188
They said, "There is
no operator. It's just
a big rubber spider.
563
00:24:15,788 --> 00:24:17,618
"Fight it."
564
00:24:19,658 --> 00:24:21,258
(ALL LAUGHING)
565
00:24:21,268 --> 00:24:22,767
So, yeah.
It was great.
566
00:24:22,768 --> 00:24:25,368
How's series nine been for you?
567
00:24:25,498 --> 00:24:26,928
- Uh, me?
- HARDWICK: Yeah.
568
00:24:26,938 --> 00:24:28,937
Oh. Uh... (CHUCKLES)
569
00:24:28,938 --> 00:24:30,377
It's been, uh, it's been good.
570
00:24:30,378 --> 00:24:36,207
It's been this kind
of freedom, I think,
to us both, being in our...
571
00:24:36,208 --> 00:24:37,708
It's our glory years.
572
00:24:37,718 --> 00:24:41,187
And it's kind of really
adrenaline fuelled
573
00:24:41,188 --> 00:24:44,357
and all about
living in the moment
and, uh,
574
00:24:44,358 --> 00:24:46,587
pushing the adventure
right up to the edge.
575
00:24:46,588 --> 00:24:51,258
And obviously with that comes
quite extraordinary danger.
576
00:24:51,458 --> 00:24:55,458
But, it's been,
it's just been very fun.
577
00:24:55,468 --> 00:24:59,237
HARDWICK: Do you think
she's running at all from,
578
00:24:59,238 --> 00:25:00,238
I mean, you know, there was a...
579
00:25:00,239 --> 00:25:03,873
She's suffered
a pretty great tragedy
at the end of last season.
580
00:25:03,874 --> 00:25:07,268
I think so.
I think it's a change
of perspective
581
00:25:07,278 --> 00:25:09,117
and a change of,
you know the idea that,
582
00:25:09,118 --> 00:25:14,278
"Life is short and I want
to live it and feel it
and feel alive
583
00:25:14,288 --> 00:25:16,117
"and eats up time and space
584
00:25:16,118 --> 00:25:18,857
"and hang out
with my best mate
in the Tardis."
585
00:25:18,858 --> 00:25:20,687
And I think that's all
she wants.
586
00:25:20,688 --> 00:25:26,118
HARDWICK: It's just that,
the idea that you can do that
and still have been a teacher
587
00:25:26,128 --> 00:25:26,728
at the same time.
588
00:25:26,729 --> 00:25:30,533
I mean can you... Do think
a companion can ever have
a normal life again
589
00:25:30,534 --> 00:25:33,628
once their lives
have been touched in that way?
590
00:25:33,638 --> 00:25:34,867
She's a multitasker.
591
00:25:34,868 --> 00:25:35,728
(LAUGHING)
592
00:25:35,738 --> 00:25:37,877
I think that's part
of the problem is,
593
00:25:37,878 --> 00:25:42,747
is that once you've kind of
eked open and opened
that cupboard
594
00:25:42,748 --> 00:25:44,247
and seen all the time and space,
595
00:25:44,248 --> 00:25:45,347
how do you go back?
596
00:25:45,348 --> 00:25:47,347
How do you go back
to living on Earth
597
00:25:47,348 --> 00:25:48,578
and living a normal life?
598
00:25:48,588 --> 00:25:50,787
I think that's, I think
it becomes addictive.
599
00:25:50,788 --> 00:25:53,057
And I think that's probably
part of the problem.
600
00:25:53,058 --> 00:25:53,588
HARDWICK: Yeah.
601
00:25:53,589 --> 00:25:57,957
For you, Michelle,
at the end of last season,
we saw you vanish.
602
00:25:57,958 --> 00:26:02,188
You seemed sad,
not that the plan didn't work
so much as just like,
603
00:26:02,198 --> 00:26:04,967
"Oh, I guess I don't get
to have my friends after all."
604
00:26:04,968 --> 00:26:08,767
So, what type
of renewed energy
do you feel like
605
00:26:08,768 --> 00:26:10,128
is taking you into series nine?
606
00:26:10,138 --> 00:26:12,747
Like, where is she gonna be
coming from now?
607
00:26:12,748 --> 00:26:16,638
She has to come at it
from a different angle.
608
00:26:16,948 --> 00:26:17,548
And, um...
609
00:26:17,549 --> 00:26:23,047
Which is kind of surprising
and exciting to play as well.
610
00:26:23,048 --> 00:26:26,678
It's just like
a different dynamic to her.
611
00:26:26,688 --> 00:26:31,497
And to be honest,
I still can't quite believe
that they've asked me back.
612
00:26:31,498 --> 00:26:36,597
And I'm still kind of,
you know, relishing that.
613
00:26:36,598 --> 00:26:38,397
And, um, so she's...
614
00:26:38,398 --> 00:26:42,598
Yeah, there's something
that's slightly different
to her
615
00:26:42,608 --> 00:26:47,707
I don't know whether
it's because in the time
it's taken to finish
616
00:26:47,708 --> 00:26:50,638
the last series
and then come to this one,
617
00:26:50,648 --> 00:26:53,177
what she's been
doing in between.
618
00:26:53,178 --> 00:26:54,078
We can only imagine.
619
00:26:54,079 --> 00:26:57,778
Probably taking tea
with the Queen.
620
00:26:57,788 --> 00:26:59,117
(ALL LAUGHING)
621
00:26:59,118 --> 00:27:00,717
She does quite like tea.
622
00:27:00,718 --> 00:27:03,487
So, I don't know.
You just wait and see.
623
00:27:03,488 --> 00:27:05,148
It's all very good.
624
00:27:05,158 --> 00:27:07,988
HARDWICK: Am I crazy
for thinking that...
625
00:27:07,998 --> 00:27:11,637
It feels like with his Doctor,
he just lets anyone on the...
626
00:27:11,638 --> 00:27:13,767
There were so many
different people where
it was just like,
627
00:27:13,768 --> 00:27:17,128
"Sure, come on.
I'm like a time traveller
of time and space.
628
00:27:17,138 --> 00:27:17,728
"You know, whatever."
629
00:27:17,738 --> 00:27:19,998
I feel like in previous
seasons, they were little...
630
00:27:20,008 --> 00:27:21,147
They were trying to guard
a little more.
631
00:27:21,148 --> 00:27:23,117
Now, they're more like,
"Door's open, come in.
Let's all..."
632
00:27:23,118 --> 00:27:26,438
"You got to school here?
Get in here, come on.
We'll take you." You know?
633
00:27:26,448 --> 00:27:30,047
I mean it seemed like
there was much more
of an open door policy
634
00:27:30,048 --> 00:27:31,478
with the Tardis,
in series eight.
635
00:27:31,488 --> 00:27:33,887
Well, Peter's got such
a friendly face.
636
00:27:33,888 --> 00:27:35,787
(ALL LAUGHING)
637
00:27:35,788 --> 00:27:36,618
MAN: It's the eyebrows.
638
00:27:36,628 --> 00:27:39,727
I didn't particularly,
I wasn't particularly
aware of it.
639
00:27:39,728 --> 00:27:42,327
I think the Doctor's
gotten more relaxed.
640
00:27:42,328 --> 00:27:44,488
Meaning, in the old series,
at the beginning,
641
00:27:44,498 --> 00:27:46,558
he was very, very strict
about who got on-board
the Tardis.
642
00:27:46,568 --> 00:27:48,407
Yeah, it's true,
but for quite
a long while, now.
643
00:27:48,408 --> 00:27:52,007
He's just basically,
"Yes, it's bigger
on the inside, get over it."
644
00:27:52,008 --> 00:27:53,707
- Right.
- Let's get on with the story.
645
00:27:53,708 --> 00:27:54,608
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
646
00:27:54,609 --> 00:27:55,868
I mean, if you
think about it, unless,
647
00:27:55,878 --> 00:27:56,947
I used to think about
this when I was a kid
648
00:27:56,948 --> 00:27:58,577
watching the show and I bet
I'm not the only one.
649
00:27:58,578 --> 00:28:01,138
I used to wonder
why the Doctor,
didn't more often
650
00:28:01,148 --> 00:28:01,608
use that as a,
651
00:28:01,618 --> 00:28:04,917
"No, I really am an alien
from Mars.
You don't believe me?
652
00:28:04,918 --> 00:28:05,608
"Okay, look at that.
653
00:28:05,618 --> 00:28:07,678
"That's an alien
from outer space, isn't it?
654
00:28:07,688 --> 00:28:08,718
"Okay, it's bigger
on the inside."
655
00:28:08,728 --> 00:28:12,497
"Why didn't he ever do that?"
is what I always use to wonder
when I was a kid.
656
00:28:12,498 --> 00:28:14,567
- Yeah.
- I see it was only me.
657
00:28:14,568 --> 00:28:15,468
(ALL LAUGHING)
658
00:28:15,469 --> 00:28:18,497
My mom was right,
I should've gotten
a girlfriend, instead.
659
00:28:18,498 --> 00:28:20,458
(ALL LAUGHING)
660
00:28:21,038 --> 00:28:23,808
Applause from
my imaginary girlfriend.
661
00:28:24,138 --> 00:28:25,998
(AUDIENCE CHEERING)
662
00:28:26,008 --> 00:28:27,848
(SCATTERED APPLAUSE)
663
00:28:27,948 --> 00:28:29,848
Virginity kept me pure.
664
00:28:30,578 --> 00:28:32,308
Peter do you feel like...
665
00:28:32,318 --> 00:28:34,183
Do you think
he's becoming gentler?
666
00:28:34,184 --> 00:28:37,547
Do you feel like it's passion
or do you feel like...
667
00:28:37,548 --> 00:28:41,578
I mean, do you think
he's a super nice guy?
668
00:28:41,588 --> 00:28:42,448
- Do you think he's a nice guy?
- Yeah.
669
00:28:42,458 --> 00:28:46,497
'Cause he comes off
kind of abrasive, sometimes
to people and he seems...
670
00:28:46,498 --> 00:28:48,427
Fabulous, he's a wonderful guy.
671
00:28:48,428 --> 00:28:51,488
He's a guy
you really wanna
hang around with.
672
00:28:51,498 --> 00:28:54,358
He's incredible.
He's a laugh.
673
00:28:54,368 --> 00:28:56,898
He's, uh, he's great looking.
674
00:28:56,908 --> 00:28:58,237
(AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
675
00:28:58,238 --> 00:29:00,837
He's terrifically live
for his age.
676
00:29:00,838 --> 00:29:02,807
- HARDWICK: Yeah.
- (ALL LAUGHING)
677
00:29:02,808 --> 00:29:03,138
Um.
678
00:29:03,148 --> 00:29:06,917
You know, I think he's,
you know we sort of live
in a world
679
00:29:06,918 --> 00:29:09,047
where everybody's
supposed to be so...
680
00:29:09,048 --> 00:29:12,208
Everybody's so easy,
everything's so accessible.
681
00:29:12,218 --> 00:29:15,718
So, you know,
the Doctor's mysterious.
682
00:29:15,728 --> 00:29:19,097
He's a Time Lord,
he's not a guy.
683
00:29:19,098 --> 00:29:21,027
You know,
he's a special creature.
684
00:29:21,028 --> 00:29:26,158
I don't even know,
whether he even has
a corporeal being.
685
00:29:26,168 --> 00:29:28,037
He may present this to everyone,
686
00:29:28,038 --> 00:29:31,807
but, he may exist
in a totally different plane.
687
00:29:31,808 --> 00:29:33,677
So, he's not a guy.
688
00:29:33,678 --> 00:29:36,247
Uh, but if he was a guy,
689
00:29:36,248 --> 00:29:39,717
um, he'd have my face
and he'd be really nice.
690
00:29:39,718 --> 00:29:42,218
(ALL LAUGHING)
691
00:29:43,118 --> 00:29:43,758
HARDWICK: But even just...
692
00:29:43,748 --> 00:29:45,748
COLEMAN: Tons more about,
this year,
the social situations.
693
00:29:45,758 --> 00:29:50,627
Clara teaches him
how to interact with humans
a little bit more this season.
694
00:29:50,628 --> 00:29:52,927
So, he knows
the right things to say
in the right situations.
695
00:29:52,928 --> 00:29:56,497
HARDWICK: What do you think
he thinks when he's with
a human one on one?
696
00:29:56,498 --> 00:29:57,837
Like, what is he thinking,
like is he thinking,
697
00:29:57,838 --> 00:30:01,528
"Oh, they're an interesting.
They're like adorable pets."
698
00:30:01,538 --> 00:30:02,208
Or do you think he...
699
00:30:02,209 --> 00:30:06,107
Don't you think he feels like
they're on the same level
in some way or...
700
00:30:06,108 --> 00:30:09,077
I think he thinks,
"Do I look bored?"
701
00:30:09,078 --> 00:30:09,518
(ALL LAUGHING)
702
00:30:09,519 --> 00:30:12,168
-My first instinct there was
"Hurry up."
-Yeah.
703
00:30:12,178 --> 00:30:16,908
But, it's great to see,
cause actually Clara does help
him with his social skills.
704
00:30:16,918 --> 00:30:22,457
Tries to make him more,
more of a welcome party guest.
705
00:30:22,458 --> 00:30:23,487
(ALL LAUGHING)
706
00:30:23,488 --> 00:30:25,418
You know, what kind of a...
You know, it's amazing.
707
00:30:25,428 --> 00:30:28,627
I think that the, you know,
with the Doctor I play,
708
00:30:28,628 --> 00:30:31,158
what I, with regard
to that Tardis question,
709
00:30:31,168 --> 00:30:34,967
I always felt he was
the kind of guy who'd say,
you know,
710
00:30:34,968 --> 00:30:37,798
"You walk through these doors,
this is bigger on the inside,
711
00:30:37,808 --> 00:30:42,247
"you come with me
and the whole
of time and space
712
00:30:42,248 --> 00:30:44,507
"will be available to you.
713
00:30:44,508 --> 00:30:45,238
"Come with me."
714
00:30:45,248 --> 00:30:48,487
And if you blink
and you don't go, "Yeah."
715
00:30:48,488 --> 00:30:49,953
- He's gone.
- HARDWICK: Right.
716
00:30:49,954 --> 00:30:53,117
He doesn't wait for you,
if you don't wanna come,
you know,
717
00:30:53,118 --> 00:30:54,378
get on with your own life.
718
00:30:54,388 --> 00:30:56,418
HARDWICK: I think we can open
the floor to some questions
now.
719
00:30:56,428 --> 00:30:59,127
I'm sure that the people
have questions
that they wanna ask.
720
00:30:59,128 --> 00:31:01,227
So let's shine
a light over there.
721
00:31:01,228 --> 00:31:02,488
- Hello!
- WOMAN 1: Hello!
722
00:31:02,498 --> 00:31:05,197
-What is...
Your microphone's...
-WOMAN 1: Hello!
723
00:31:05,198 --> 00:31:06,458
Are you there?
724
00:31:06,468 --> 00:31:08,438
(LAUGHTER)
725
00:31:08,638 --> 00:31:09,338
Hello.
726
00:31:09,339 --> 00:31:11,077
Steven, it's a puppet of you.
727
00:31:11,078 --> 00:31:13,438
(ALL LAUGHING)
728
00:31:14,578 --> 00:31:16,213
What is, what is your name?
729
00:31:16,214 --> 00:31:18,108
WOMAN 1: Uh, Puppet Laura.
(GIGGLES)
730
00:31:18,118 --> 00:31:21,247
Hello, Puppet Laura.
Do you have a question?
731
00:31:21,248 --> 00:31:22,038
WOMAN 1: Yes, well,
732
00:31:22,048 --> 00:31:25,178
with the new Doctor
and the new Missy,
the Mistress...
733
00:31:25,188 --> 00:31:26,927
I'm sorry, I was talking
to Puppet Laura.
734
00:31:26,928 --> 00:31:30,248
WOMAN 1: With the new Doctor
and the new Mistress,
735
00:31:30,258 --> 00:31:35,727
with the new season
coming along and how they
interacted in the last season.
736
00:31:35,728 --> 00:31:37,427
How will the dynamics be now
737
00:31:37,428 --> 00:31:40,097
since we know she's trying
to be his best friend
738
00:31:40,098 --> 00:31:43,028
and he's awkward and different.
739
00:31:43,038 --> 00:31:46,907
So, how will that dynamic
change for season nine?
740
00:31:46,908 --> 00:31:48,447
I think
that's a Steven question.
741
00:31:48,448 --> 00:31:52,617
Well, I mean it's a...
The way Missy comes back
into the Doctor's life
742
00:31:52,618 --> 00:31:56,117
is not something
that you're probably
going to predict.
743
00:31:56,118 --> 00:31:58,417
It's very, very different.
744
00:31:58,418 --> 00:32:00,717
I don't think this is
a new idea, by the way,
745
00:32:00,718 --> 00:32:02,718
the Doctor and the Master
being good friends.
746
00:32:02,728 --> 00:32:04,697
One of the first things
I did when I started
writing this
747
00:32:04,698 --> 00:32:08,697
was go back and look at
the John Pertwee,
Roger Delgado version.
748
00:32:08,698 --> 00:32:12,438
- And they...
- (AUDIENCE CHEERING)
749
00:32:12,638 --> 00:32:14,837
The sound of
elderly fans clapping.
750
00:32:14,838 --> 00:32:18,138
- It's a little bit slower.
- (ALL LAUGHING)
751
00:32:18,738 --> 00:32:23,368
The first thing I did is that,
they absolutely play it
as best friends.
752
00:32:23,378 --> 00:32:25,677
You know, one of them
wants to blow up the world
753
00:32:25,678 --> 00:32:26,808
one of them wants to
stop it blowing up.
754
00:32:26,818 --> 00:32:30,517
But, hey, you can't
let those little things
get in the way, can you?
755
00:32:30,518 --> 00:32:32,587
And you imagine yourself,
going to a gentleman's club
756
00:32:32,588 --> 00:32:34,487
and share some
brandy afterwards.
757
00:32:34,488 --> 00:32:35,378
So, that's not new.
758
00:32:35,388 --> 00:32:38,818
That's so...
We do play on it,
but don't worry,
759
00:32:38,828 --> 00:32:42,597
she's just as vile
and psychopathic as ever.
760
00:32:42,598 --> 00:32:44,267
In a lovely way.
761
00:32:44,268 --> 00:32:45,637

00:32:45,638 --> 00:32:47,803
HARDWICK: Excellent,
thank you, Puppet Laura.
763
00:32:47,804 --> 00:32:49,967
And I assume
human Laura as well.
764
00:32:49,968 --> 00:32:52,428
That's a very convincing human
you've got with you.
765

(ALL LAUGHING)
766
00:32:54,208 --> 00:32:55,268
Hello.
767
00:32:55,278 --> 00:32:56,907
Oh, my God.
768
00:32:56,908 --> 00:32:59,877
BOY: Hi, I just...
First, I wanted to see if
769
00:32:59,878 --> 00:33:05,248
Jenna and Steven
remember me from
my Make-A-Wish in 2013.
770
00:33:05,258 --> 00:33:07,057
Oh, yes, hello again.
771
00:33:07,058 --> 00:33:07,528
BOY: Hi.
772
00:33:07,529 --> 00:33:11,048
And that has really helped me
get through a lot
773
00:33:11,058 --> 00:33:16,227
and what I wanted to ask
and this is for everyone,
774
00:33:16,228 --> 00:33:20,597
that every villain, hero,
companion,
775
00:33:20,598 --> 00:33:25,368
even Ryder, has something
iconic about them.
776
00:33:25,378 --> 00:33:31,617
About their character,
about the way,
about the tone to the,
777
00:33:31,618 --> 00:33:33,577
that they put to the story.
778
00:33:33,578 --> 00:33:35,438
What do you think is yours?
779
00:33:35,448 --> 00:33:38,648
That is a way better question
that anything I said.
780
00:33:38,658 --> 00:33:41,088
(ALL LAUGHING)
781
00:33:42,488 --> 00:33:45,388
-What do you think
is iconic about...
-(AUDIENCE CHEERING)
782
00:33:45,398 --> 00:33:49,298
What do you think is iconic
about your Doctor?

-Um, you mean,
mine specifically or...
-HARDWICK: Yeah.
784
00:33:52,698 --> 00:33:54,728
Eyebrows.
I just heard eyebrows.
785
00:33:54,738 --> 00:33:56,307
(ALL LAUGHING)
786
00:33:56,308 --> 00:33:59,177
MOFFAT: You can't just say
"Because of his eyebrows."
787
00:33:59,178 --> 00:34:04,047
This eyebrow thing,
apparently is iconic.
788
00:34:04,048 --> 00:34:06,018
I don't get it myself.
789
00:34:06,878 --> 00:34:07,708
Jenna, what about you?
790
00:34:07,718 --> 00:34:11,687
Oh, my goodness, uh, I have,
I have no idea.
791
00:34:11,688 --> 00:34:12,288
MOFFAT: Eyes.
792
00:34:12,289 --> 00:34:14,957
- Eyes?
- MOFFAT: Eyes. Huge eyes.
793
00:34:14,958 --> 00:34:16,493
- Big eyes.

- The lips.
- COLEMAN: Lips.

(AUDIENCE CHEERING)
797
00:34:24,528 --> 00:34:25,588
Obviously.
798
00:34:25,598 --> 00:34:26,228
HARDWICK: Yeah.
799
00:34:26,238 --> 00:34:30,937
When she plants,
when she absolutely
plants on him
800
00:34:30,938 --> 00:34:32,468
- in that episode...
- Yeah.
801
00:34:32,478 --> 00:34:35,177
And, was it, I almost
kind of wondered,
802
00:34:35,178 --> 00:34:36,148
if I were to watch back,
803
00:34:36,149 --> 00:34:37,617
is there even a second
where he was like,
804
00:34:37,618 --> 00:34:40,038
"Oh, I know who this is.
Or it's still..."
805
00:34:40,048 --> 00:34:44,188
'Cause it freaks him out
whenever someone
shows him affection.
806
00:34:44,248 --> 00:34:46,048
(LAUGHING)
807
00:34:46,058 --> 00:34:49,187
Yeah, the question
is who kissed who.
808
00:34:49,188 --> 00:34:51,187
(ALL LAUGHING)
809
00:34:51,188 --> 00:34:53,388
And who hung on.
810
00:34:53,698 --> 00:34:55,397
And just didn't let go.
811
00:34:55,398 --> 00:34:57,167
And I think if you do
play it back
812
00:34:57,168 --> 00:35:00,208
and a few of you,
I imagine, have often,
813
00:35:01,068 --> 00:35:03,428
you'll see that
Peter is really...
814
00:35:03,438 --> 00:35:04,537
There's some suction there.
815
00:35:04,538 --> 00:35:06,398
- HARDWICK: Yeah. Yeah. He's...
- (AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
816
00:35:06,408 --> 00:35:07,607
HARDWICK: He's definitely
pulling her in.
817
00:35:07,608 --> 00:35:10,468
There was one take
where Michelle held my hand...
818
00:35:10,478 --> 00:35:12,047
- Yes.
- Throughout the kiss.
819
00:35:12,048 --> 00:35:18,557
What you didn't see
was that I was actually
also holding Clara's hand
820
00:35:18,558 --> 00:35:18,888
as I...
821
00:35:18,889 --> 00:35:22,458
HARDWICK: That answers a lot
about the dynamics
of season nine now.
822
00:35:23,258 --> 00:35:25,727
Did somebody
just say, "That's odd?"
823
00:35:25,728 --> 00:35:26,997
HARDWICK: No.
824
00:35:26,998 --> 00:35:27,968
"That's hot."
825
00:35:27,958 --> 00:35:28,958
'Cause I don't think
it's odd at all.
826
00:35:28,968 --> 00:35:32,968
HARDWICK: No, she said,
"That's hot." She thought
that was hot, yeah.
827
00:35:33,168 --> 00:35:34,503
Yes, what is your name?
828
00:35:34,504 --> 00:35:35,928
WOMAN 2: Hi, my name
is Bridget.
829
00:35:35,938 --> 00:35:36,908
And what's
your question, Bridget?
830
00:35:36,909 --> 00:35:39,107
BRIDGET: Uh, my question's
for Jenna.
831
00:35:39,108 --> 00:35:43,677
Um, I was wondering
how you transitioned
from working with Matt Smith
832
00:35:43,678 --> 00:35:47,318
to Peter Capaldi
and how you felt about it.
833
00:35:47,578 --> 00:35:50,908
Well, it's pretty, um,
roller coaster day.
834
00:35:50,918 --> 00:35:53,178
I think this is fair to say,
there aren't many shows

00:35:53,188 --> 00:35:57,387
where you switch
the lead actor mid-scene.
836
00:35:57,388 --> 00:35:59,718
(ALL LAUGHING)
837
00:35:59,728 --> 00:36:02,627
Literally with
a handshake and a swap
of the costume watch,
838
00:36:02,628 --> 00:36:04,988
cause there was
only one of them.
839
00:36:05,968 --> 00:36:08,667
But, it was a... It was...
It just happened.
840
00:36:08,668 --> 00:36:12,428
And we came back
and began to shoot
a whole new Doctor Who
841
00:36:12,438 --> 00:36:15,138
in January. But, um...
842
00:36:15,148 --> 00:36:18,577
Yeah, it was a...
It was a roller coaster.
843
00:36:18,578 --> 00:36:22,438
It was feeling...
Saying goodbye
to one dear friend
844
00:36:22,448 --> 00:36:24,878
and a very excited
hello to another.
845
00:36:24,888 --> 00:36:25,558
All at the same time.
846
00:36:25,559 --> 00:36:27,057
HARDWICK: Yeah, it is sort of
the magic of the show
847
00:36:27,058 --> 00:36:30,027
that I think as, you know,
if you're a die-hard fan
of the show,
848
00:36:30,028 --> 00:36:34,757
it's always heart breaking
when you watch
a regeneration episode.
849
00:36:34,758 --> 00:36:37,527
And you cry about it
for a couple of days.
850
00:36:37,528 --> 00:36:39,358
And then you're a little...
851
00:36:39,368 --> 00:36:40,667
Yeah, I cried, okay?
852
00:36:40,668 --> 00:36:42,237
- (AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
- MAN: So did I!
853
00:36:42,238 --> 00:36:44,607
And so... Mike knows
what I'm talking about.
854
00:36:44,608 --> 00:36:46,137
- MAN: Yeah.
- And so...
855
00:36:46,138 --> 00:36:47,468
Then, after a couple
of episodes, you're like,
856
00:36:47,478 --> 00:36:50,018
"I don't know who
this new guy is.
I don't know if I like him.
857
00:36:50,008 --> 00:36:51,008
"But I can kinda let him in,
maybe."
858
00:36:51,009 --> 00:36:53,708
And after like each episodes,
you're like
"Okay, he's pretty good."
859
00:36:53,718 --> 00:36:56,817
And, then by, you know,
the half of the series
you're like,
860
00:36:56,818 --> 00:36:58,217
"Don't go anywhere!"
861
00:36:58,218 --> 00:37:01,548
It's just this interesting...
This is like loss,
862
00:37:01,558 --> 00:37:04,927
but, getting new people
and accepting new people.
863
00:37:04,928 --> 00:37:07,897
I mean, it's just life,
you know.
864
00:37:07,898 --> 00:37:09,267
The show's just life.
865
00:37:09,268 --> 00:37:12,137
Uh, what is your name
and question?
866
00:37:12,138 --> 00:37:14,067
WOMAN 3: Hi, my name is Ally.
867
00:37:14,068 --> 00:37:15,737
And my question is for everyone.
868
00:37:15,738 --> 00:37:21,847
Um, what are your opinions
on eventually
having a female doctor?
869
00:37:21,848 --> 00:37:24,648
(AUDIENCE CHEERING LOUDLY)
870
00:37:28,278 --> 00:37:30,847
You said everyone,
but I don't think I get a say.
871
00:37:30,848 --> 00:37:34,217
Uh, I'll start with Steven.
872
00:37:34,218 --> 00:37:34,948
Well, there is no vacancy.
873
00:37:34,958 --> 00:37:39,657
It's worth pointing out,
you just met Peter Capaldi
and said,
874
00:37:39,658 --> 00:37:41,788
"When you leave..."
875
00:37:41,798 --> 00:37:42,728
Um, there is no vacancy.
876
00:37:42,729 --> 00:37:47,697
Um, well my opinion
is fairly obvious
from the show.
877
00:37:47,698 --> 00:37:48,158
Isn't it?
878
00:37:48,168 --> 00:37:51,598
What I think about
the possibility and whether
it would work or not?
879
00:37:51,608 --> 00:37:55,777
I think I've expressed myself
about as clearly as I could
880
00:37:55,778 --> 00:37:58,047
in the context of the show.
881
00:37:58,048 --> 00:38:00,617
If you're not reading
the subtext,
882
00:38:00,618 --> 00:38:02,047
then I urge you.
883
00:38:02,048 --> 00:38:06,248
But, believe me, some people
aren't reading that subtext.
884
00:38:06,258 --> 00:38:08,587
'Cause it's too subtle.
885
00:38:08,588 --> 00:38:10,018
(ALL LAUGHING)
886
00:38:10,028 --> 00:38:14,657
Yeah, and I'm not
going to reveal myself
as a man today.

(ALL LAUGHING)
888
00:38:15,428 --> 00:38:20,098
That would be such
a disappointment,
especially for Jack Davenport.
889
00:38:21,068 --> 00:38:23,298
HARDWICK: Jenna, how do you...
Do you wanna take a shot?
890
00:38:23,308 --> 00:38:27,677
Um, I'm sure it'll happen
at some point, but, um,
891
00:38:27,678 --> 00:38:30,317
like Steven says, it's just
about casting the right actor.
892
00:38:30,318 --> 00:38:36,508
And, um, I don't,
I don't think Peter's gonna
change costume or anything.

(ALL LAUGHING)

00:38:37,888 --> 00:38:41,927

have to do like

Fantastic.

MAN 1: Yeah.
In a thousand years,
906
00:39:16,228 --> 00:39:17,997
when Doctor Who is found again,
907
00:39:17,998 --> 00:39:21,488
everyone will
remember all of you.
908
00:39:21,698 --> 00:39:24,933
Steven Moffat,
I have a question for you,
as a writer,
909
00:39:24,934 --> 00:39:28,197
what is your
greatest inspiration
in literature
910
00:39:28,198 --> 00:39:32,268
and what do you pull
most from in time?
911
00:39:32,578 --> 00:39:35,307
Oh, this is
such a depressing answer.
912
00:39:35,308 --> 00:39:38,568
Um, probably Doctor Who.
913
00:39:38,578 --> 00:39:39,908
(ALL LAUGHING)
914
00:39:39,918 --> 00:39:42,417
It's, uh, it's what made me
want to be a writer, it is.
915
00:39:42,418 --> 00:39:45,057
I'm not making this up
for the sake of this panel.
916
00:39:45,058 --> 00:39:49,218
Uh, I saw Doctor Who
and said,
"That's Amazing.
917
00:39:49,228 --> 00:39:51,227
"One day
I shall run that show."
918
00:39:51,228 --> 00:39:52,357
(ALL LAUGHING)
919
00:39:52,358 --> 00:39:55,758
My parents were surprised,
I hadn't spoken until then.
920
00:39:55,768 --> 00:39:56,827
(ALL LAUGHING)
921
00:39:56,828 --> 00:40:00,658
Uh, so, it was...
I was so inspired
by Doctor Who.
922
00:40:00,668 --> 00:40:03,107
I remember, what got me
interested in television
923
00:40:03,108 --> 00:40:05,277
was the fact that
the Doctor changed
924
00:40:05,278 --> 00:40:06,707
and I couldn't understand why.
925
00:40:06,708 --> 00:40:08,307
I was like,
"Why would they do that?"
926
00:40:08,308 --> 00:40:09,268
And eventually,
my dad explained to me
927
00:40:09,278 --> 00:40:12,147
because one actor wanted
to leave and another one
wanted to come in.
928
00:40:12,148 --> 00:40:13,347
And I thought,
"That's interesting."
929
00:40:13,348 --> 00:40:15,187
I didn't know
they could do that.
930
00:40:15,188 --> 00:40:16,088
(AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
931
00:40:16,089 --> 00:40:18,087
I mean,
I had to deal with the idea
932
00:40:18,088 --> 00:40:20,387
that somebody would be
Doctor Who,
933
00:40:20,388 --> 00:40:22,787
and then chose
not to be Doctor Who.
934
00:40:22,788 --> 00:40:25,718
And I've had to live through
that as an adult, as well.
935
00:40:25,728 --> 00:40:27,227
It was quite frightening.
936
00:40:27,228 --> 00:40:29,227
Um, but no.
I mean, it sort of is...
937
00:40:29,228 --> 00:40:32,558
I mean, the other influences
as a writer, uh...
938
00:40:32,568 --> 00:40:35,637
If you ever want to know
how to write a screen play,
939
00:40:35,638 --> 00:40:38,137
forget all those "How to write
a screenplay" books
940
00:40:38,138 --> 00:40:39,628
and just read William Goldman.
941
00:40:39,638 --> 00:40:42,668
Uh, everything,
every screenplay
William Goldman's ever written
942
00:40:42,678 --> 00:40:45,113
is amazing.
So, that's worth reading.
943
00:40:45,114 --> 00:40:47,077
Neil Simon is a God of comedy,
944
00:40:47,078 --> 00:40:49,878
if one is to understand
how comedy works,
945
00:40:49,888 --> 00:40:50,358
read Neil Simon.
946
00:40:50,359 --> 00:40:54,448
But really, above all,
I think Horror of Fang Rock
is really cool.
947
00:40:54,458 --> 00:40:59,327
Ah, that's a Doctor Who
story for those of you
who, uh, who are new.
948
00:40:59,328 --> 00:41:00,098
So, so...
949
00:41:00,099 --> 00:41:02,427
It's a slightly boring asset,
but that's the one.
950
00:41:02,428 --> 00:41:05,088
HARDWICK: Pass it on,
for good measure.
951
00:41:05,098 --> 00:41:08,097
- Uh, do you have a question?
- WOMAN 4: I do, I do.
952
00:41:08,098 --> 00:41:10,728
Um, my question is for Peter.
953
00:41:11,168 --> 00:41:14,337
So, with your expert experience
954
00:41:14,338 --> 00:41:17,207
in all of the previous seasons,
955
00:41:17,208 --> 00:41:20,208
do you think that
the twelfth Doctor
956
00:41:20,218 --> 00:41:22,117
would ever want to travel
957
00:41:22,118 --> 00:41:24,957
with any other companion
and who would it be?

Um, I think that, uh...

- Donna, Donna.
- I think that he would like...
964
00:41:48,708 --> 00:41:52,468
He loves travelling
with Clara.
I think that's, uh,
965
00:41:52,478 --> 00:41:55,338
the special bond he has
is with Clara.

we're going back to work

I've got to say that.

But I think he'd like to
see his grand-daughter again.
970

- HARDWICK: Aw, good answer.

1002
00:43:37,788 --> 00:43:40,487
teaching a bit of Jane Austen,
1003
00:43:40,488 --> 00:43:44,887
followed by walking
into Stationery Cupboard,
1004
00:43:44,888 --> 00:43:46,318
opening the doors to Tardis.
1005
00:43:46,328 --> 00:43:51,797
-Um, and then jetting off
to like, Jupiter.
-HARDWICK: Mmm-hmm.
1006
00:43:51,798 --> 00:43:57,267
-Or Uranus, or some strange
planet from far.
-HARDWICK: Oh, my.
1007
00:43:57,268 --> 00:43:59,298
- Never do!
- (AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
1008
00:43:59,308 --> 00:44:03,547
-HARDWICK: So, Jupiter.
So, then, Jupiter, then.
-Jupiter, that's what it is.
1009
00:44:03,548 --> 00:44:05,848
Jupiter.
1010
00:44:06,778 --> 00:44:09,278
Uh, kill some octopus
shaped aliens,
1011
00:44:09,288 --> 00:44:12,987
save the world,
have a cup of tea
with the Doctor,
1012
00:44:12,988 --> 00:44:13,788
and get an early night.
1013
00:44:13,789 --> 00:44:16,657
-HARDWICK: Nice. You two
do that a lot. Peter.
-Yeah.
1014
00:44:16,658 --> 00:44:19,757
Ah, I think I'll probably
get up, have a nice big
pot of coffee,
1015
00:44:19,758 --> 00:44:23,788
read the papers,
think this is really relaxing.
I really like this thing.
1016
00:44:23,798 --> 00:44:26,097
Get really bored.
1017
00:44:26,098 --> 00:44:27,828
And look up into the night sky,
1018
00:44:27,838 --> 00:44:32,238
which would be odd
because it's in the morning,
but I could be
1019
00:44:32,608 --> 00:44:35,747
on another planet
where morning is night.
1020
00:44:35,748 --> 00:44:39,947
And I'll think,
"Yes, let me go to a planet
where morning is night."
1021
00:44:39,948 --> 00:44:42,217
And, yes, I think
he would just...
1022
00:44:42,218 --> 00:44:45,887
Every day, he just starts off
wanting to have
a nice quiet time,
1023
00:44:45,888 --> 00:44:49,057
and then thinks,
"Oh, this is dull,
it's all out there.
1024
00:44:49,058 --> 00:44:55,027
"Let me go out there
and go to the planet Skaro
and see where they're at."
1025
00:44:55,028 --> 00:44:56,158
HARDWICK: No, don't go there!
1026
00:44:56,168 --> 00:45:00,868
Why do you think he is
so enamoured of humans?
1027
00:45:01,068 --> 00:45:02,537
Budgetary reasons.
1028
00:45:02,538 --> 00:45:05,478
(ALL LAUGHING AND APPLAUDING)
1029
00:45:05,678 --> 00:45:07,708
Thank you, Christopher.

00:45:08,338 --> 00:45:09,998
Hello.

1033
00:45:12,678 --> 00:45:13,538
And what is your question?
1034
00:45:13,548 --> 00:45:17,817
Given the opportunity that
the Doctor and Sherlock
1035
00:45:17,818 --> 00:45:19,557
have an episode together,
1036
00:45:19,558 --> 00:45:21,757
which should happen,
just saying,
1037
00:45:21,758 --> 00:45:26,727
how do you, Peter, think
that the personalities
would work out?
1038
00:45:26,728 --> 00:45:30,027
Like, how would you react?
1039
00:45:30,028 --> 00:45:32,628
Uh, more cleverly.
1040
00:45:32,638 --> 00:45:33,897
(ALL LAUGHING)
1041
00:45:33,898 --> 00:45:37,598
MOFFAT: It would be a long
conversation about billing.
Trust me.

(AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
1043
00:45:41,138 --> 00:45:43,707
HARDWICK: Yeah.
'Cause, when I think of
the first time...
1044
00:45:43,708 --> 00:45:45,407
One of the first times
I met Steven,
1045
00:45:45,408 --> 00:45:47,038
I thought I was very clever
and I was like,
1046
00:45:47,048 --> 00:45:49,917
"Whoa! I mean the Doctor's
just Space-Sherlock?"
1047
00:45:49,918 --> 00:45:51,587
And he was like,
"No, he's not."
1048
00:45:51,588 --> 00:45:53,257
- (ALL LAUGHING)
- Because the...
1049
00:45:53,258 --> 00:45:54,158
And then I immediately
shrank down,
1050
00:45:54,159 --> 00:45:56,687
because I just said a dumb
thing to someone I admired.
1051
00:45:56,688 --> 00:45:57,887
And then, uh...
1052
00:45:57,888 --> 00:45:59,818
So, the Doctor has compassion
for everyone,
1053
00:45:59,828 --> 00:46:02,127
and Sherlock has compassion
for no one,
1054
00:46:02,128 --> 00:46:03,288
- basically.
- MOFFAT: Yeah.
1055
00:46:03,298 --> 00:46:04,838
- Yeah, they're very different.
- So...
1056
00:46:04,828 --> 00:46:05,558
- MOFFAT: Yeah.
- Yeah.
1057
00:46:05,568 --> 00:46:07,837
MOFFAT: I'm not sure how well
they'd get along.
1058
00:46:07,838 --> 00:46:08,937
Uh, but for the record,
1059
00:46:08,938 --> 00:46:10,837
just for the record
because no one believes this,
1060
00:46:10,838 --> 00:46:12,437
I have no problem
with the idea of them meeting,
1061
00:46:12,438 --> 00:46:15,468
it's all the rest of them
that've got problem with it.

(AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
1063
00:46:16,379 --> 00:46:18,577

- Um, Jenna...
- Moffat.

I see you, it's fine.
Moffat, then.
1072
00:46:37,328 --> 00:46:40,088
ETHAN: Uh, Jenna's character
has been divided into
1073
00:46:40,098 --> 00:46:43,058
multiple versions, as we saw
with the two previous,
1074
00:46:43,068 --> 00:46:44,298
before her character came on.
1075
00:46:44,308 --> 00:46:48,737
Will we ever see
maybe more version
of Clara's character
1076
00:46:48,738 --> 00:46:49,968
from time and space?
1077
00:46:49,978 --> 00:46:53,547
Well, we'd never tell you
what we're gonna do
in advance, would we?
1078
00:46:53,548 --> 00:46:56,817
But, uh, Doctor Who magazine
has done, uh...
1079
00:46:56,818 --> 00:46:58,617
A rather good, uh,
1080
00:46:58,618 --> 00:47:00,248
comic strip version of that.

Uh, so if you want to see that
it's actually available there.
1082
00:47:04,758 --> 00:47:05,957
It's really quite good.
1083

Everybody in my family
is called Moffat.

MAN 4: Um, this is for Jenna.

00:47:36,658 --> 00:47:41,857
Was being a companion
something you've always,
like dreamed of doing
1100
00:47:41,858 --> 00:47:44,688
or was it like a happy accident?
1101
00:47:44,698 --> 00:47:47,567
It was a very happy accident.

Um, I was... I was
one of the denied children
1103
00:47:50,768 --> 00:47:54,368
??? so, it was
never in my childhood.
1104

Um...
1105
00:47:55,179 --> 00:47:56,707
So, my, uh, my first experience
1106
00:47:56,708 --> 00:47:59,508
was literally just getting
Steven Moffat's sides
1107
00:47:59,518 --> 00:48:03,418
of playing three different
characters in one audition.
1108
00:48:03,718 --> 00:48:04,458
And, um...
1109
00:48:04,448 --> 00:48:05,848
I just had so much fun.
I loved it.
1110
00:48:05,858 --> 00:48:09,957
And, uh, had a couple of
meetings with Matt and, uh...
1111
00:48:09,958 --> 00:48:11,387
It was, uh...
1112
00:48:11,388 --> 00:48:12,818
It was so surprising
1113
00:48:12,828 --> 00:48:16,197
how many different versions
of one scene you can play with
1114
00:48:16,198 --> 00:48:21,567
and how sharp and witty
and just fun and funny
the writing was.
1115
00:48:21,568 --> 00:48:23,037
And is.

- (AUDIENCE LAUGHS)

happy and very lucky accident.
1118
00:48:31,578 --> 00:48:33,717
HARDWICK: How did you...
Did you feel your life changed
1119
00:48:33,718 --> 00:48:36,887
from the second
it started airing,
1120
00:48:36,888 --> 00:48:37,488
with you on the show?
1121
00:48:37,489 --> 00:48:41,117
I mean, it changed,
it changed really
from that first audition.
1122
00:48:41,118 --> 00:48:42,648
But it's the storytelling
that you get to do,
1123
00:48:42,658 --> 00:48:45,827
and the inventions
and the sets that
you will come to,
1124
00:48:45,828 --> 00:48:49,197
and the mad old stunts
and, um...
1125
00:48:49,198 --> 00:48:50,028
aliens and green screen...
1126
00:48:50,029 --> 00:48:53,528
You know, the whole
experience is really like
nothing else.
1127
00:48:53,538 --> 00:48:55,597
And then you step out of it
for a second,
1128
00:48:55,598 --> 00:48:56,328
and come to places like this.
1129
00:48:56,338 --> 00:49:00,207
And, um, you get greeted by
lots of very cool people.
1130
00:49:00,208 --> 00:49:04,113
It's just, it's just
incredible storytelling
at its best with...
1131
00:49:04,114 --> 00:49:07,877
Somebody described it to me
as an imagination explosion.
1132
00:49:07,878 --> 00:49:09,208
And I like that description.
1133
00:49:09,218 --> 00:49:11,453
HARDWICK: Yeah, because
you guys shoot in a bubble,
1134
00:49:11,454 --> 00:49:14,217
and you work most of the year,
and so you probably...
1135
00:49:14,218 --> 00:49:17,118
I'd imagine it's very
difficult for you to
see the effect,
1136
00:49:17,128 --> 00:49:18,627
that the show is having
on people
1137
00:49:18,628 --> 00:49:21,497
until you come to an event
like this.
1138
00:49:21,498 --> 00:49:23,727
What's it like over in England?
1139
00:49:23,728 --> 00:49:24,558
Is it similar?
1140
00:49:24,568 --> 00:49:25,997
Is it...
Are people similar?
1141
00:49:25,998 --> 00:49:27,828
Are they kind of similar
over there?

- MOFFAT: Yeah. I mean...
- (AUDIENCE LAUGHING)

00:49:30,008 --> 00:49:31,637
What did you imagine,
they were like?
1144
00:49:31,638 --> 00:49:32,907
HARDWICK: Well,
because when...
1145
00:49:32,908 --> 00:49:37,247
Because when...
I remember when Matt and Karen
and Arthur first came over...
1146
00:49:37,248 --> 00:49:39,347
-Yeah.
-It completed melted
their brains.
1147
00:49:39,348 --> 00:49:41,383
Because people, you know,
I think in New York,
1148
00:49:41,384 --> 00:49:44,278
where people waited in line
for two days outside.
1149
00:49:44,288 --> 00:49:45,417
And they were like, "Oh, my God!
1150
00:49:45,418 --> 00:49:46,748
"People in England
aren't like this."
1151
00:49:46,758 --> 00:49:47,688
And it really...
Like they were excited,
1152
00:49:47,689 --> 00:49:51,187
but it also freaked...
Like, and they were like
jolted by it a little bit.
1153
00:49:51,188 --> 00:49:53,288
Oh, I see what you mean.
In terms of reaction, yeah.
1154
00:49:53,298 --> 00:49:56,967
You know, America's much more
generous and outgoing
and you know...
1155
00:49:56,968 --> 00:50:01,767
The way British people, um,
enjoy themselves in public
1156
00:50:01,768 --> 00:50:03,158
is secretly.

I mean, you know,
I can't move my face.

It never... People will think
I'm grumpy all of the time.
1162
00:50:12,308 --> 00:50:14,477
It's just, I don't know
how they work.

(LAUGHING)

00:50:16,418 --> 00:50:19,987
They come out and saying,
"That was absolutely
hilarious."
1166
00:50:19,988 --> 00:50:21,027
(AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
1167
00:50:21,028 --> 00:50:23,418
"I couldn't stop laughing."
1168
00:50:24,288 --> 00:50:24,888
So, yeah. There is that.
1169
00:50:24,889 --> 00:50:27,857
But people are very excited
about Doctor Who
in Britain too.
1170
00:50:27,858 --> 00:50:29,458
- HARDWICK: Yeah.
- Yeah, they are. But also...
1171
00:50:29,468 --> 00:50:32,837
We get blocked from this,
um, bubbling Cardiff to here.
1172
00:50:32,838 --> 00:50:36,607
You know, in Cardiff,
we're just making a show.
We're working.
1173
00:50:36,608 --> 00:50:37,807
And then suddenly we're here,
1174
00:50:37,808 --> 00:50:39,737
and there's a room full of
7,000 people
1175
00:50:39,738 --> 00:50:41,198
and that lady
with all those badges.
1176
00:50:41,208 --> 00:50:44,977
And it's certainly...
It's certainly incredibly
exciting
1177
00:50:44,978 --> 00:50:47,547
and strange and...
1178
00:50:47,548 --> 00:50:48,318
Why she got so many badges?
1179
00:50:48,319 --> 00:50:52,253
-(AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
-HARDWICK: Is that
Button Lady? Yeah.
1180
00:50:52,254 --> 00:50:54,278
(AUDIENCE CHEERING
AND APPLAUDING)
1181
00:50:54,288 --> 00:50:55,987
- Oh, there she is.
- Look at those badges.
1182
00:50:55,988 --> 00:50:58,648
BUTTON LADY:
This is my friend Karen.
1183
00:50:58,658 --> 00:51:00,218
ALL: Hi!
1184
00:51:00,228 --> 00:51:02,497
Um, my question is for Mr...
1185
00:51:02,498 --> 00:51:04,533
Well, first of I want to
mention to Mr Capaldi.
1186
00:51:04,534 --> 00:51:08,158
'Cause I just wanted to show
that I can say it right.
1187
00:51:08,168 --> 00:51:08,568
Um...
1188
00:51:08,569 --> 00:51:10,867
Did you like the bun that
I gave you yesterday?
1189
00:51:10,868 --> 00:51:13,998
It was great. I got a fabulous
badge that says
1190
00:51:14,008 --> 00:51:15,377
"Not a Hugger."
1191
00:51:15,378 --> 00:51:17,407
(AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
1192
00:51:17,408 --> 00:51:20,338
BUTTON LADY: And my question
is for Mr Moffat.
1193
00:51:20,348 --> 00:51:21,188
Uh, Steven...
1194
00:51:21,189 --> 00:51:23,278
MOFFAT: Hello.
Mr Moffat's fine.
1195
00:51:23,288 --> 00:51:25,247
You will not take me over!
1196
00:51:25,248 --> 00:51:29,378
BUTTON LADY:
I noticed that you made
Matt's Doctor very special
1197
00:51:29,388 --> 00:51:33,018
by having his face for
the longest amount of years.
1198
00:51:33,028 --> 00:51:35,727
How you gonna show
the love to Peter?
1199
00:51:35,728 --> 00:51:38,888
Well, you mean I showed
my love to Matt
1200
00:51:38,898 --> 00:51:41,528
by trapping him for 1,000 years,
1201
00:51:41,538 --> 00:51:42,837
in a village?
1202
00:51:42,838 --> 00:51:44,367
BUTTON LADY: Yes.
1203
00:51:44,368 --> 00:51:48,738
You have a very,
very strange way
of expressing love.
1204
00:51:50,078 --> 00:51:51,747
I aged him to death.
1205
00:51:51,748 --> 00:51:53,987
That is not how you
express you affection.
1206
00:51:53,988 --> 00:51:56,138
Well, marriage I suppose.
1207
00:51:56,148 --> 00:51:58,308
(AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
1208
00:51:59,148 --> 00:52:01,217
Do you know what?
Do you know what?
1209
00:52:01,218 --> 00:52:02,018
I'm not gonna answer you.
1210
00:52:02,019 --> 00:52:05,488
Because there's an answer
coming up in the show.
1211
00:52:05,558 --> 00:52:08,118
(AUDIENCE CHEERING)
1212
00:52:08,658 --> 00:52:10,358
HARDWICK: Excellent.
Thank you.
1213
00:52:10,368 --> 00:52:11,138
BUTTON LADY: What a tease!
1214
00:52:11,139 --> 00:52:14,128
Did you have another
question, Button Lady,
or are you all set?
1215
00:52:14,138 --> 00:52:16,107
It's good to see you again.
1216
00:52:16,108 --> 00:52:17,167
Bye.
1217
00:52:17,168 --> 00:52:18,598
HARDWICK: Hello.
1218
00:52:18,608 --> 00:52:23,507
WOMAN 6: I was wondering
if you had any tips
for aspiring actors?
1219
00:52:23,508 --> 00:52:25,738
Just to all of you.
1220
00:52:26,678 --> 00:52:28,338
For aspiring actors.
1221
00:52:28,348 --> 00:52:30,047
Go into hosting.
It's what I did.
1222
00:52:30,048 --> 00:52:31,478
(AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
1223
00:52:31,488 --> 00:52:33,657
'Cause I'm a crappy actor.
1224
00:52:33,658 --> 00:52:34,258
Read a lot.
1225
00:52:34,259 --> 00:52:37,227
Read a lot of books and
read as much as you can.
1226
00:52:37,228 --> 00:52:41,698
As somebody whose endured
a lot of rejection,
1227
00:52:42,158 --> 00:52:47,188
and as somebody
whose nicknamed
by their agent as The Roach,
1228
00:52:47,198 --> 00:52:48,428
as in The Cockroach,
1229
00:52:48,438 --> 00:52:52,707
because I'm now an inspiration
to the younger clients,
1230
00:52:52,708 --> 00:52:56,607
because I keep getting
squashed like a bug out there,
1231
00:52:56,608 --> 00:52:58,438
and I keep coming back.
1232
00:52:58,448 --> 00:52:59,677
So, um, my...
1233
00:52:59,678 --> 00:53:02,408
My tip would be
just never give up.
1234
00:53:02,418 --> 00:53:06,987
And this world is abundant and
there's enough for everyone,
1235
00:53:06,988 --> 00:53:07,858
and if you do give up,
1236
00:53:07,859 --> 00:53:10,287
somebody else was going to
take your spot anyway,
1237
00:53:10,288 --> 00:53:12,548
so if you really just believe
in yourself,
1238
00:53:12,558 --> 00:53:16,018
and you keep going you'll get
your five minutes of fame.
1239
00:53:16,028 --> 00:53:20,428
-(APPLAUSE)
-HARDWICK: Peter, do you have
an answer for that?
1240
00:53:20,438 --> 00:53:22,337
-Do you have
an answer for that?
-Me?
1241
00:53:22,338 --> 00:53:23,068
For aspiring actors, yeah.
1242
00:53:23,069 --> 00:53:26,128
- Learn your lines.
- HARDWICK: Learn your lines.
1243
00:53:26,138 --> 00:53:28,098
HARDWICK: I got to say
just really quickly,
1244
00:53:28,108 --> 00:53:29,977
I know you didn't want to
seriously ask me,
1245
00:53:29,978 --> 00:53:31,377
but I do have
a suggestion for you.
1246
00:53:31,378 --> 00:53:34,647
Which is that technology
has made it possible,
1247
00:53:34,648 --> 00:53:37,487
for you to just make the thing
that you want, you know.
1248
00:53:37,488 --> 00:53:40,687
So, just make stuff.
Make stuff.
Don't be afraid to make stuff.
1249
00:53:40,688 --> 00:53:42,627
Don't be afraid to fail.
Make stuff with your friends.
1250
00:53:42,628 --> 00:53:46,157
Find someone who's like
a writer and a producer
and form a group.
1251
00:53:46,158 --> 00:53:46,888
Put it on YouTube.
1252
00:53:46,898 --> 00:53:48,697
Put your stuff out
in the world and...
1253
00:53:48,698 --> 00:53:50,527
When you start pursuing
that path like,
1254
00:53:50,528 --> 00:53:52,888
answers will start to reveal
themselves to you.
1255
00:53:52,898 --> 00:53:54,458
So, there are no
excuses any more.
1256
00:53:54,468 --> 00:53:57,067
Just make the stuff that
you want to see exist
in the world,
1257
00:53:57,068 --> 00:53:59,598
and then if the business
catches up with you, great.
1258
00:53:59,608 --> 00:54:01,077
And if not you're making
the stuff you want.
1259
00:54:01,078 --> 00:54:04,077
And that should make you
happy. So that's my advice.
1260
00:54:04,078 --> 00:54:07,647
-(CROWD CHEERING)
-I'm not trying to...
Don't do that.
1261
00:54:07,648 --> 00:54:09,047
I turned it into
an Oprah moment.
1262
00:54:09,048 --> 00:54:12,408
And you get a car!
And you get a car!
1263
00:54:13,518 --> 00:54:16,018
I know someone who's
taken that path.
1264
00:54:17,058 --> 00:54:18,058
Hello!
1265
00:54:18,059 --> 00:54:21,457
MAN 5: Um, my name
is Jeriko Salazar,
1266
00:54:21,458 --> 00:54:24,388
- and I'm the Grinch.
- (ALL LAUGHING)
1267
00:54:25,968 --> 00:54:29,808
I love that
that's how you say hi.
"I am the Grinch."
1268
00:54:30,068 --> 00:54:33,328
I wanna ask this... Well,
for starters,
I love all you guys.
1269
00:54:33,338 --> 00:54:35,637
Thank you for coming here.
You're amazing.
1270
00:54:35,638 --> 00:54:38,268
Sir, can you just
wake that lady up?
1271
00:54:38,278 --> 00:54:40,117
Is she authentic?
1272
00:54:40,118 --> 00:54:42,088
(ALL LAUGHING)
1273
00:54:48,958 --> 00:54:51,358
Get on. Get on.
1274
00:54:51,828 --> 00:54:53,597
She loves Doctor Who.
1275
00:54:53,598 --> 00:54:56,267
What I'm asking you, Peter...
1276
00:54:56,268 --> 00:54:59,767
Whenever you become Doctor,
like, not now...
1277
00:54:59,768 --> 00:55:01,167
Whenever you're the Doctor,
1278
00:55:01,168 --> 00:55:03,837
do you ever feel
all the other doctors
1279
00:55:03,838 --> 00:55:06,937
- inside of you burning...
- (CLEARS THROAT)
1280
00:55:06,938 --> 00:55:09,098
Like some residue they left?
1281
00:55:09,108 --> 00:55:11,868
A sensation?
Their souls, I guess?
1282
00:55:11,878 --> 00:55:13,747
HARDWICK: First of all,
that's a very sexy question.
1283
00:55:13,748 --> 00:55:16,387
Second of all, I can't stop
watching your fingers.
1284
00:55:16,388 --> 00:55:19,718
(AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
1285
00:55:25,728 --> 00:55:28,028
"You're a mean one."
1286
00:55:28,958 --> 00:55:30,727
Do I feel the other doctors?
1287
00:55:30,728 --> 00:55:33,988
- (AUDIENCE LAUGHING)
- HARDWICK: Inside you?
1288
00:55:33,998 --> 00:55:36,158
Inside me?
1289
00:55:36,168 --> 00:55:39,228
Deep, deep inside you.
1290
00:55:42,908 --> 00:55:46,208
Well, I often feel
Tom Baker appearing.
1291
00:55:46,948 --> 00:55:49,377
From time to time. Um...
1292
00:55:49,378 --> 00:55:51,847
Yeah, sometimes
you do something, you think,
1293
00:55:51,848 --> 00:55:56,578
that's very Tom or David
or John.
1294
00:55:56,588 --> 00:56:00,148
But I don't subconsciously
try to, uh,
1295
00:56:00,158 --> 00:56:02,488
to emulate any of them.
1296
00:56:02,498 --> 00:56:04,727
I think they're all wonderful,
1297
00:56:04,728 --> 00:56:06,558
but certainly, they...
1298
00:56:06,568 --> 00:56:08,997
They echo throughout the show,
1299
00:56:08,998 --> 00:56:12,267
so we do, in the script,
there are moments
of resonance.
1300
00:56:12,268 --> 00:56:14,698
When there are bits and pieces
of things that I know
1301
00:56:14,708 --> 00:56:17,907
have begun with another Doctor.
1302
00:56:17,908 --> 00:56:21,677
And I'm always very happy
to play those moments.
1303
00:56:21,678 --> 00:56:22,878
HARDWICK: Excellent.
Thank you, Mr Grinch.
1304
00:56:22,888 --> 00:56:26,357
Um, we have time
for one more question
which is you.
1305
00:56:26,358 --> 00:56:27,787
What is your name, sir?
1306
00:56:27,788 --> 00:56:29,187
MAN 6: Hi, my name is Gabe.
1307
00:56:29,188 --> 00:56:31,848
And I just want to say,
you guys are all
wonderful people,
1308
00:56:31,858 --> 00:56:34,727
and everything.
I appreciate you guys
coming down here.
1309
00:56:34,728 --> 00:56:37,933
And, Jenna, I just want you
to know that I can be
1310
00:56:37,934 --> 00:56:40,997
the impossible boy
to your impossible girl.
1311
00:56:40,998 --> 00:56:43,028
ALL: Aw!
1312
00:56:43,038 --> 00:56:44,937
You're like one of my
favourite companions.
1313
00:56:44,938 --> 00:56:48,437
But my question goes back
to you and Peter.
1314
00:56:48,438 --> 00:56:51,638
Um, out of just being
in this series,
1315
00:56:51,648 --> 00:56:54,817
what is, I guess
the most amazing thing
1316
00:56:54,818 --> 00:57:00,358
that's happened to you
that you weren't expecting
to come from this show?
1317
00:57:00,518 --> 00:57:03,148
(CLEARS THROAT)
That I wasn't expecting?
1318
00:57:03,158 --> 00:57:05,058
HARDWICK: Yeah.
1319
00:57:06,998 --> 00:57:11,997
You know, it's just
an extraordinary experience,
the whole thing,
1320
00:57:11,998 --> 00:57:14,407
I mean, I didn't
realise the show...
1321
00:57:14,408 --> 00:57:18,498
People tell you the show
is successful overseas,
1322
00:57:18,508 --> 00:57:20,607
and that it was
catching on in America,
1323
00:57:20,608 --> 00:57:24,178
but I didn't realise,
it was to this scale.
1324
00:57:24,308 --> 00:57:27,408
(AUDIENCE CHEERING)
1325
00:57:27,418 --> 00:57:30,617
So, to come here
and find this warmth
and affection
1326
00:57:30,618 --> 00:57:34,887
for something that goes
all the way back
to my childhood,
1327
00:57:34,888 --> 00:57:38,457
I find myself
in the centre of for now,
1328
00:57:38,458 --> 00:57:41,127
is absolutely extraordinary.
1329
00:57:41,128 --> 00:57:45,097
But, the most amazing
thing that happens
1330
00:57:45,098 --> 00:57:49,497
is that I get the affection
1331
00:57:49,498 --> 00:57:53,468
for the whole 50 years
pointed in my direction.
1332
00:57:53,478 --> 00:57:55,977
And that's a great
position to be in.
1333

(AUDIENCE APPLAUDING)
1334
00:57:57,178 --> 00:57:59,817
HARDWICK: Thank you very much
for your question.
1335
00:57:59,818 --> 00:58:02,087
We want to show you
a couple more things before
1336
00:58:02,088 --> 00:58:06,608
we let you continue sitting
there, I guess. I don't know.
1337
00:58:06,618 --> 00:58:08,317
That's... I don't know
if you guys...
1338
00:58:08,318 --> 00:58:10,718
Do you want to answer that?
Do you have
an answer for that?
1339
00:58:10,728 --> 00:58:12,927
-Did you just hear that?
I'm sorry.
-What? Yeah.
1340
00:58:12,928 --> 00:58:14,527
- Did you want to...
- No, no, no.
1341
00:58:14,528 --> 00:58:15,528
- Are you sure?
- Sure.
1342
00:58:15,529 --> 00:58:17,297
Because you can and, obviously,
1343
00:58:17,298 --> 00:58:19,167
that guy totally loves you.
1344
00:58:19,168 --> 00:58:20,867
I was just going to say, um,
1345
00:58:20,868 --> 00:58:22,403
how much I love Peter Capaldi.
1346
00:58:22,404 --> 00:58:26,028
-Yes.
-And how, he's one of
my favourite human beings
1347
00:58:26,038 --> 00:58:28,368
and one of the best things
about the job,
1348
00:58:28,378 --> 00:58:29,507
sorry to embarrass you terribly,
1349
00:58:29,508 --> 00:58:32,638
is going to work every day
in the Tradis with this guy.
1350
00:58:32,648 --> 00:58:36,188
HARDWICK: That's love.
Thank you.

a special Doctor Who
fan night this Saturday,
1352
00:58:41,558 --> 00:58:44,493
at 2:30 at the House of Blues,
and then, also before we go,
1353
00:58:44,494 --> 00:58:47,388
I'm excited to announce,
we haven't
announced this yet, but

00:58:47,398 --> 00:58:48,697
Nerdist is working
with BBC America,
1355
00:58:48,698 --> 00:58:51,397
we're producing a special
called the Doctor's Finest.
1356
00:58:51,398 --> 00:58:53,037
We're going to be
visiting eight of
our favourite episodes
1357
00:58:53,038 --> 00:58:55,267
and wrap them
with some segments
and some trivia,
1358
00:58:55,268 --> 00:58:58,207
and fan-general content and
tons of Comic Con footage.
1359
00:58:58,208 --> 00:59:00,807
And it's being hosted
by Emma Hart,
who is amazing.
1360
00:59:00,808 --> 00:59:04,477
So that premieres
Saturday August 15th
