Moffat: Twelve is Pretending He Doesn’t Fancy Clara

It seems Steven Moffat has different ideas to Peter Capaldi when it comes to how he views the Twelfth Doctor and Clara’s relationship.

Speaking at the recent BAFTA NY panel Moffat said: “We’re in a very different place with the Doctor and Clara in the modern series, it’s been a while since I’ve seen the early stages of the Twelfth Doctor trying to pretend he doesn’t fancy Clara – ‘Oh you’re ugly! Disgusting! … Stop looking so good!’”

“In truth, in most cases with the Doctor he always loves them more than they love him. That’s his story. He’s always besotted with them even though he’s trying to pretend that he isn’t.”
