Radio Times visits A Town Called Mercy
This week's
Radio Times features an interview with the cast, who talk about their Wild West adventure.
Matt Smith:
We're in the Wild West! I get to ride horses! I get to play cowboy. Guns! Saloon bar doors… You literally get Doctor Who does the Wild West.
Arthur Darvill:
I don't get to burst through any saloon bar doors. I might try to put some in. I've invented a new award, which I think Bafta should give, which is the Best Performance in the Back of Shot. So I'm going to burst through some saloon doors and see if it makes the episode.
Karen Gillan:
I do have a bit of a gun moment in this. But then Amy has had a few gun moments. I'm thinking now she knows how to use a gun. Which is going to be fun because we're in the Wild West and I'm going to look like I know what I'm doing.”
The full interview can be read in the latest edition, out today.
