Doctor Who cast ⟶ Arthur Darvill
“It’s been epic and it has required a lot of coffee. Your life kinda goes out the window a bit, but we all help each other through it. I’ve made some of my best friends working on Doctor Who.”

Doctor Who cast ⟶ Alex Kingston
“The stories allow for a heightened form of acting. It’s not kitchen-sink drama and the dialogue can be quite challenging. The humour is very welcome and I love the fact that apart from the basic storylines there are all sorts of things people from different generations can pick up on.”

Doctor Who cast ⟶ John Barrowman
“You have to do bad things in order to become a hero. You have to make sacrifices. This is how I see it, as the guy who plays the character. I see that what Jack does, nothing is wrong. But a lot of people do.”

Doctor Who cast ⟶ Karen Gillan
“I was 21 when I started this job and I didn’t really know what I was getting into. And then it just went crazy. It was this whirlwind. I’m coming out of the other end of it and I feel like a different person almost. And I just had the best time of my entire life doing this job.”

Doctor Who cast ⟶ Matt Smith
“You’re plonked right at the heart of an adventure and you have such great adventures and it’s done with wit and humor and brilliance, so for me it’s a privilege to work for Steven and a huge privilege to be able to be this man.”

Doctor Who cast ⟶ Catherine Tate
“For one brief moment I was the most important woman in the whole of the universe. Oh gosh, I can’t thank Russell enough for just making that possible. For many people, I’m sure, what a gamble to take on someone like me who is known, by the vast majority of people, for wearing wigs and comedy teeth.”

Doctor Who cast ⟶ John Simm
“The Doctor and the Master are two sides of the same coin, and I’m the flipside, I’m tails, and I’m the baddie Doctor. I’m happy being the baddie Doctor, I wouldn’t like to be the Doctor.”

Doctor Who cast ⟶ Freema Agyeman
“If Doctor Who hadn’t arrived, I’m sure I’d still be doing some form of acting. Maybe as a mother with three children, in the club down the road, doing a play.”

Doctor Who cast ⟶ David Tennant
“It’s been the most extraordinary time, it’s been bewildering, life changing, very exciting. And just so much fun, such a great show to work on.”

Doctor Who cast ⟶ Noel Clarke
“A lot of Mickey happened by accident. I came in and played him quite badly in season one. We didn’t know what Doctor Who was going to be – it was a kid’s show, right? So there’s me, doing the big eyes, grinning like an idiot.”

Doctor Who cast ⟶ Billie Piper
“You really have to give it your life, and it can get quite suffocating. I loved the show, and I’m grateful to it, but you’re taking on a lot more than a role, just because of the obsession with it.”

Doctor Who cast ⟶ Christopher Eccleston
“The thing about The Doctor is, he’s very inclusive. He doesn’t see the alien in aliens and I loved that about him. Also the fact that he’s never at home. He’s a Time Lord and he’s always, always falling though the universe. When I thought about that, I thought I could play that.”
