Doctor Who: Matt Smith on Jonathan Ross + extended Series 5 trailer

Saturday 27 March 2010

Matt Smith was the headlining guest on Friday Night With Jonathan Ross, 8 days before the new series of Doctor Who starts on Saturday 3 April (BBC1/HD, 6.20pm). The BBC are stingy with what they make available from this show on YouTube, so you'll have to make do with the above clip of Smith showing Wossy his sonic screwdriver and discussing the new TARDIS interior. If you're in the UK, you can currently watch the whole episode (and fast-forward to Smith, after Emma Thompson and Professor Brian Cox) by clicking here. Failing that, trawl YouTube for someone to have uploaded the complete interview unofficially. Anyway, I thought Smith came across very well and clearly has that all-important eccentricity he can feed into the character. He also introduced an extended version of the Series 5 trailer and a clip from episode 6's "Vampires In Venice", which you can watch below:
