New Doctor Who ‘slightly nervous’ during first day on the job
ByThe Courier Reporter
New Doctor Who star Peter Capaldi has admitted to nerves after stepping on to the show’s set for the first time.
The actor, who has replaced Matt Smith as the Time Lord, joined co-star Jenna Coleman in Cardiff.
He said: “New job, first day, slightly nervous. Just like the Doctor, I’m emerging from the Tardis into a whole other world.”
Viewers got their first glimpse of Capaldi at the end of the Christmas Day episode of the long-running science fiction show.
Show supremo Steven Moffat said: “First the eyebrows. Then, at Christmas, the face. Coming soon, the whole Doctor. In the Cardiff studios, the Capaldi era begins.”
Filming on the eighth series of the show will go on until August under director Ben Wheatley.
