I like, if I can, to do a few epic, moving shots where a lot of things are happening, rather than hundreds of action cuts, so we did one really big Steadicam shot with Peter, where he battled through the forest. It was important to me - and to Peter - that we got that all as one, even though we cut it up in the edit. The adrenaline that happens as you run, and things grab you, and all these explosions go off around you - the excitement! - just adds so much. It gives a visceral sense to it, and Peter really felt that. It is like being on a battlefield. The first time he went through, tons of dirt rained down on him. He came out the other end, with dirt all over him, and you should have seen the grin on his face! He said ‘Yup, this is actionhero stuff.’

Brilliant

It was already overwhelming that Twelve was the Doctor to so many — Clara, River, and Bill all felt loved and accepted for their true selves because of him. 

But the fact that, in the end, he was Missy’s Doctor, too? The fact that she asked him to try to make her a better person, and, despite the pain she caused him, he never gave up on her capacity for kindness? 

 You have been an exceptional Doctor, Twelve.
