Smith talks Series 6 Part 2 and Hats
On The Girl Who Waited:
“We see Amy Pond go on a very interesting adventure. There are these handbots, and there’s this whole time twist in it. It gives Karen the platform to be very brilliant, acting-wise, and wear a prosthetic, that’s all I’ll say…”
On The God Complex:
“11 is marvellous – Toby Whithouse’s episode, great monster. And David Walliams, who’s very funny, very brilliant. He plays this mole-looking creature who comes from this planet where the whole population are designed to be afraid. So that’s their purpose in life, to welcome invaders and be captured! You can imagine David being quite funny at that.”
On Closing Time:
“Episode 12, which is James [Corden], Cybermen, a sort of Three Men And A Baby, which is really great fun… James is back on fine fiddle. The Cybermen are great. I like those episodes. I want him to come back again, James.”
On the finale:
“Episode 13’s bloody brilliant. It’s Steven answering all our questions…”
On more hats in Series 7:
“I’ve already been thinking about hats for next year. I think the pork pie’s quite fun… I think Steven’s going to go for a really ridiculous one, if indeed he gives me one at all. I really liked the Stetson…”
