Karen
Gillan has been
confirmed as the Doctor’s
new assistant, joining
Matt Smith in the TARDIS
in 2010. The name of her
character has yet to be
announced. Moff
describes Karen as “funny,
and clever, and
gorgeous, and sexy. Or
Scottish, which is the
quick way of saying it.”

giving nothing away when
asked how he felt as the
show entered a new era:
“I've
been doing the job for
ages now!”
