Matt Smith has praised Richard E. Grant for his work on next week’s Doctor Who Christmas special. The 57 year old will star in the festive episode when it airs on BBC One on Tuesday and during an interview on ‘This Morning’ the other day Smith said he was born for the role, explaining:

“Do you know what he was born to be a Who villain. He pitches it on that perfect level and tone and he’s a wonderful guy.”

Below is a clip from the programme.

He also added, in another interview:

“He was a delight and brilliant at being villainous. Some actors are just made for the show and he is one of them.”

Tom Ward, who plays Captain Latimer, said of Richard that “I’ve only got one scene with him but he was delightful, funny and charming. To meet the man himself was an honour.”

Interview On Running A Fan Website

A few days ago I was asked by Cat from the Filmmaking Review site to give a short interview on what it was like to run a fansite for REG. Well, that interview is now up online for all to see.

Lastly, yes I am aware that there are a couple of issues with videos not displaying properly on The Temple site at the moment, but I hope to have that issue fixed up soon.
