How does it feel to be the face of an arena tour?
"It's a privilege. It feels rather marvellous. It's one of those lovely things that you only get to experience when you play The Doctor, I suppose."
You've filmed brand new video scenes for the tour. What can you tell us about them?
"Basically, it's all narrative-based. Within that, there's a character which I can't name, and The Doctor has a lot of interactions with him. Also, you've got all the monsters - the Daleks, the Cybermen, the Weeping Angels, the Silurians, the Judoon, the Ood, the vampires. Churchill makes an appearance. [So does] Liz Ten. All of that is woven into this one narrative structure. On top of that, [composer] Murray Gold's music has scored a lot of the live-action that's taking place on the stage."
You've also filmed some new scenes for the DVD release of the last series. Can you reveal anything about those?
"Without wishing to give too much away, because I want them to remain a surprise, I can tell you that Steven Moffat has written them and they're extra little scenes and skits. They're self-contained and they're just very funny. He's not bound by any narrative so he can just write really funny skits. I think they're a wonderful bonus."
