British star Jenna Coleman has insisted that she will not reveal whether or not she is leavingDoctor Who.
The actress, currently on screen with new Time Lord Peter Capaldi, is rumoured to be quitting her role as companion Clara Oswald in the hit sci-fi show.
But she says: “There’s lots of rumors. We’ve sat down with [showrunner] Steven Moffat and we’ve all decided we don’t want anybody to know which way it’s going.
“If you know I’m in the next series – or if you know I’m off – you’ll know how the story ends.”
Asked about the Christmas episode, she added: “Because there’s a surprise we’ve got coming, it’s much better that nobody knows which way it’s going to go – so that’s where we’re trying to keep it at the moment…
“That’s all I should probably say.”
But she added of her character: “It all becomes rather chaotic, as you can imagine, and that doesn’t work at all – it becomes quite impossible.”
Capaldi recently insisted that he was “not looking for a new assistant”.
“I don’t know where these rumors have started,” he said. “What I can say is she is absolutely fabulous.
“She’s been called upon to do things that I don’t think any other companion has had to do, to show a kind of emotional range and I think she’s done it absolutely brilliantly.”
Well, Capaldi might not be looking for a “new assistant”; however, Moffatt should be looking for a new Doctor… Personally, Capaldi as the new Time Lord does STILL not convince me… Sure, he is a good actor, but by far the worst Doctor since the show’s 2005 re-boot.
Sadly, from me, it’s a big thumbs down!
