[on Doctor Who (2005)] There was a backlash when I was cast. I was 26 and I was unknown. And people went “That is not Doctor Who”. I always knew I wanted it to be quite physical and I wanted the comedy to be quite physical and I knew I wanted him to feel very clever but at the same time to not quite understand the human race.

Kids should feel afraid of Doctor Who (2005). All the adults I’ve talked to remember fondly being afraid when they were kids. That’s part of the reason they remember it and love it. And if you’re afraid in a controlled way, you sort of appreciate fear in some respect.

It’s hard work, Doctor Who (2005), but let’s be frank about it, I’m fortunate to be rewarded in the ways that I am. I don’t just mean financially, I mean the nature of the part and everything that comes with it.
