- Russell T Davies confirmed that Bernard Cribbins' scene in ‘Wild Blue Yonder’ is his final appearance as Wilfred Mott in Doctor Who.
- Bernard Cribbins at 'The Star Beast' read-through. I know it's disappointing that he's not in this episode but don't worry, you will see him again. #DoctorWho
- Ncuti Gatwa: "So something I took from Margot [Robbie working on Barbie] onto Doctor Who was to get the crew good food vans. Once a month, bring in a pizza van or an ice cream van. Feed everyone!"
- Steven Moffat says that using preferred pronouns “is basic courtesy. That's normal. It's not a big ask, is it? Just be nice.”
- Peter Davison on current Doctor Who: “It’s like watching a trailer for a Doctor Who show you’d like to watch later. There are huge gaps in the narrative. They’re just leaping onto the next bit and hoping your brain fills in the rest.”
- Billie Piper on her regeneration scene at Florida Supercon: "This is such a minefield - I have to really engage with how I answer this. All I can say is I was approached very last-minute…”
- Christopher Eccleston on the Doctor having his accent: “It’s a tiny nod to the little boy who had gone, ‘I don’t like that guy, he’s posh. I don’t trust him. He sounds like a Tory politician to me.’”
- Peter Davison on Billie Piper's “Doctor”: “It’s a completely mad idea. I don’t think she is the Doctor. I think it’s kind of just a hand grenade thrown into the final episode to try and go ‘whoa, what’s this?’” And then it’s almost like ‘get out of that’”.
- Matt Smith: “… Ncuti’s brilliant. I feel very proud to have been in the show.” “People that attack Doctor Who blow my mind. It’s about an alien who is cool and travels around the universe saving civilisations — what’s not to love?”
- Russell T Davies on Christopher Eccleston: "…I love what he did. I think his comedy is funny – he plays it brilliantly. I think the darkness is off the scale with him – when the Doctor’s angry, it’s spectacular. It’s a magnificent, never-to-be forgotten Doctor…"
